Dr. Ron Paul Quote

"The theory of the IRS is rather repugnant to me because the assumption is made that I, the government, owns 100% of your income and I permit you to keep 5%, 10% or 20%. You're vulnerable, you've sold out. The government can take 80% if they want, which they did at one time."

It allows the government to meddle into our personal business.  -- Cal, lewisville, TX

YESSS !!! If the government owns my income, it does not represent me, it owns me. Those voted in representatives, represent the god and master of the occupying statist theocracy infesting this land, not me or We The People.  -- Mike, Norwalk
Yes, the assumption of power is that We the People are wholly subservient to government employees and their dictates. And the IRS is slated to be the enforcement arm of Obamacare. I suggest that the individual States throw the IRS out, never to return -- better the citizens keep their money and spend it locally than accept federal monies. Time to throw off the yoke!  -- E Archer, NYC
Again Ron Paul shows his A$$. The IRS has no theory. The IRS is an agency of the The Department of The Treasury which does the bidding of Congress and the law. An institution that Ron Paul was a long time member. But Mr. Paul is very smart in one way, he knows that voters will vote for someone who is the enemy of their enemy, thus running against the IRS is good politics. Hitler knew this game best when he ran against Jews. But alas in both cases these guys are and were gutter politicians. But the comments above show that gutter politics still draws in the feeble minded.  -- Waffler, Smith
The IRS in the Continental Unionized Socialists of Amerika (USA) is not an agency of the Treasury. It is an independent ? that ultimately acts for the Fed (soon to be expanded to greater tyranny) I'm not going to give all the court cases and other cites to prove this again - just showing your lying ways one more time. You are right about the IRS being We The People's enemy. How are both gutter politician? One was for income tax, big government, despotism in its worst forms and Ron Paul is vehemently opposed to such.  -- Mike, Norwalk
