Does anybody know how to faint on purpose?

Does anyone know anybody that doesnt pay their taxes on purpose?

  • JUST CURIOUS , I WAS READING UP ON IT , AND IT SEEMS LIKE A BIG GAME ALMOST!

  • Answer:

    Yes, a close family member; and it's no joke. You've got to remember - taxes on the state and local level support your schools, municipal services like trash pick up; and on the national level, while it's harder to feel, we are blessed compared to other nations. So, don't call the cops, ambulance services, expect no help from 911...you get it. My relative is basically just lazy and hates details. No big protester or anything. Now that the nation's computerized, you will definitely get addressed. If you don't owe, you won't have any real ramifications; but if you do, the interest and penalties are severe. Also, if you have refunds coming back to you, you forfeit them after three tax years. Finally, philosophically, it's commanded in the Bible to render unto Ceasar that which is Ceasar's (there are commensurate admonishments in other religions) - which means be a good citizen. The best way to have no regrets when you're older (you sound kinda young, yet) is to not perform clearly regrettable actions.

I know of a few. The only legal way to not pay tax is to earn less than the required minimum annual income. I know a few people who do this *on purpose* to avoid having to pay tax. More power to them, for finding an honest way to avoid it!

Yes, I did one year, back in 1969, to protest the Vietnam War (yes, I am old). Then I found out that is not the smartest thing to do. I eventually had to pay, and a lot of interest. What started out as $250 or so blossomed into over $900 after interest.. Won't do that ever, ever again (In case there are any IRS agents reading this), sincerely never again

Through technology and data mining services, the IRS and state governments now have far more resources to locate non-filers than ever before. When you are caught, you will owe interest and penalties of up to 50% of the amount owed and could face criminal charges and prison. The IRS has no statute of limitations when the taxpayer has not filed a return, so the exposure will be with you forever. The IRS also has a right to enforce collection by seizing and levying your home, bank accounts, other assets. Bottom line - file your taxes.

Someone was just arrested in my home town last week for not paying their taxes - they read one of those "books" that said you don't have to, - IRS caught up with him - he's in jail, doesn't have bond money - My honest belief is that if you never ever filed taxes, it would be hard for the IRS to catch you, but once you start it's easier because they have your soc number and name on file with a tax filing. I wouldn't advocate that, just a thought.

Wasnt one of the contestants on Survivor busted for not paying taxes? If the rest of us are paying, these scammers should be busted and forced to pay so the rest of us wont have to pay as much.
