It's pretty amusing that the Tax Protester argument is essentially that income tax is unconstitutional. Maybe they haven't read the 16th amendment to the constitution? If it's in the constitution it obviously can't be unconstitutional.

Quote:
The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration.
And one of Irwin Schiff's arguments was that "the United States Tax Court is not a court." That ought to go over well with the judges.
