Yes, I am familiar with all three Constitutions. Intimately.

What I think you may not be grasping is that the IRS does not levy direct or un-apportioned taxes. They can't. They have to operate according to their own rules. And they do, assidiously.

They administer the -Internal- Revenue of the DC City State. It is extra-territorial to The United States and The United States of America.

Their authority does not extend outside DC, as per 26 USC 7701. Unless they are collecting excise from their employees functioning as "residents" in our Country (The United States of America and the 50 states, which they have nothing to say about).

The Tax on Federal Income is an excise. It is voluntary. Several IRS Commissioners have, on record, attested to that fact. It is voluntary because people are voluntarily accepting foreign statuses "gifted" to them.

It's why you fill out the 1040 form yourself. It is your choice, and you are assumed to know if you need to do it.

"We" (Americans) are supposed to have Fee-Simple grants to our soil, not alloidal "Title" (which is a grant from the Queen). It probably should be re-iterated that U.S. Citizens and citizens of the United States -cannot- own property in this country, they can only rent it (and pay ground rent in the form of "use tax/property tax" in so doing).

Americans are Americans, United Statesians are United Statesians. Until and unless you correct the presumption that you are the latter, you cannot claim to be the former.
