Dentist: I Don't Have to Pay Taxes
Here is an article about a dentist in Florida who refuses to pay taxes.
Federal prosecutors say Dr. Nancy Montgomery-Ware didn't pay taxes on more than $1 million in income in 2000 and 2001, and didn't file federal income tax returns in 2002, 2003, and 2004, when she earned between $500,000 and $730,000 per year.Okay, Nancy let me know how that works out for you. The best part of the article is where she talks about representing herself in court:
She was indicted in April by a federal ground jury on two counts of tax evasion and three counts of failing to file an income tax return. If convicted, she could have to trade her lucrative dental practice for up to 13 years in a federal prison.
"It's been a challenge. I really don't know what I'm doing," she said. "The odds are stacked against you. Everything I've put in is based on the rules of the court and they wouldn't let it in."Who is crazier? Her for thinking she would win this case or people who let this nut put her fingers in their mouth?
She hasn't filed a federal income tax return since 1999, she said, after "doing my own research and gaining new understanding that really there is no such thing as a U.S. citizen."

I can understand her 100% Why should we have to pay taxes on the money we work for? Not to mention why should she have to pay a higher tax because she is successful? She is a good person and the world should know that. She believes in paying sales tax not income tax. I support you Dr. Montgomery!!!

Shannon,
Thanks for stopping by and reading even though I strongly disagree with your sentiments. You asked: "Why should we have to pay taxes on the money we work for?" The simple answer to that question is because it is the law. Personally, I am not a fan of the federal income tax and the way our representatives have screwed it up with loopholes and BS over the decades. However, even though I'd like to see our government funded a different way, I have to play by the current rules. If she doesn't like the rules of the game she can write her congressman/senators and convince them to support a national sales tax.
