I stopped paying taxes long before I heard about lawful money. When My youngest kid turned 18, i could no longer get money back from the fed, having not paid anything in except ssi, I was self employed, had my own business. Up to that point I had talked to an accountant, he basically said that my particular business, a book store and its merchandise value was based on what I could sell the books and goods I had purchased for. and no one alive has that gift of absolutely knowing that something will even sell and perhaps even at a loss. So it basically was what I said it was worth. I stayed below the poverty level in terms of capitol gains and money taken out of the business. You would be surprised what you can get a business to pay for you and not claim it as income. lol. I can safely say these things now as the statute of limitation in terms of taxes has long along run out. Just don't wave a flag in their face and they will ignore you.

PS I also started a church of my choice and as a paster of the church, it could pay for many of my living expences. Work around are so much better then confrontations.
