To no flaw, the author below has clearly defined an economic solution to our present precarious deficit-heavy position. Our system can't go on much longer, and the smart money is betting against the dollar. Simply take a look at where Soros and Buffett have drawn a line in the sand.
At the same time, this proposition would certainly right one of the more egregious examples of Constitutional injustices in modern times----the illegal ratification of the 16th amendment, and the subsequent convoluted legal language forming the parameters of the system which serves to obfuscate the truth.
For our citizens:
Why not write our laws in a foreign language? As it is, we need attorneys to vet the truth and intent from existing laws, as if clarity of such ought not be an assailable aspiration or possibility.
To wit:
THE IRS SHOULD BE LEFT TO DIE
by Bob Minarik
03/08/06
'There have been a number of stories in the news about the IRS being
sickly because
of lack of funding and low morale within its ranks.
The IRS is sick all right, but trying to fix it isn't that an agency should be
left to die or be killed. Its death would be a
benefit not a detriment. Credibility would be added to an ethics
starved government and the most vile, the most contemptible, the
most reprehensible agency in existence in the U.S.A. today, would
be eliminated.
Even now, the bleeding hearts, who worship big government as savior of
mankind, are crying for more funding and pleading that we
can't survive without an increase in the Gestapo and fear tactics
that the IRS now uses to steal from the American people. But such
is utter hogwash.
An elimination of the IRS and the income tax would not only more
productivity in the free market, it would inspire an economic
boom that would eliminate the present need for government subsidies
and give-a-ways. Ironically, those give-a-ways equal the exact 43%
of the expenditures of the proposed national budget that is
collected from the American people as an income tax.
Other benefits of a dead IRS and no income tax would be free, fairer
elections where the IRS could no longer intimidate with
threats, audits or criminal investigations, the people who donate to
candidates. Even Judges, both Federal and State, would have one
less agency to black-mail them to stay within the agency determined
parameters when deciding cases.
The rights of people would also be enhanced 1000%. The people once again would be secure in their personal papers, privacy and effects.
They would no longer be compelled to be a witness against themselves
or required to take an oath against their will. Much fear and
private waste attempting to comply with an intentionally complicated
Revenue Code would be flat out eliminated. And thousands of
lawyers, accountants and tax preparers would have to become givers
of production instead of takers of it.
Yes, it's past time to let this thieving agency die. For few would
mourn it's death. To the contrary, celebration would abound
as the cause of liberty would once again take a giant step forward.
It can't be stated loud enough that a free people and the IRS can co-exist.
The IRS is like a cancer. The IRS permeates the free
enterprise system and eats away at the liberty that is the
foundation of that system. To allow it to operate, even in a sickly
state is allowing too much. The reality is that the IRS is
inversely proportional to liberty. The stronger the IRS the less
the liberty of the people. If we are to regain our liberty - The
IRS must not just be left to die, it must be destroyed and the
ground salted so heavily that it can never ever sprout again.'

As contentious as it might be, would not a true test of democracy be a citizens vote whether to abolish the institution entirely? When, one wonders, does the notion of common sense frame the reference points and rules by which we live?
When can common sense be counted on to prevail in disputes of natural social discord? Or to smooth the wrinkles of bureaucracy, streamlining and making effective programs designed to strengthen the rubric of our society.
When might we be allowed our right to vote? An educated guess would predict hordes flocking to the polls. Let justice be heard.
