Can the IRS Just Do Whatever It Wants??

A member of my Yahoo Group Tips & Tricks for Court responded to one of my posts wherein I inquired whether any of my members had pursued the 60 day timing requirement of 26 U.S.C. § 6303. His comments in response are in the quote panels below:
Hi, Bear, None of this matters very much. Perhaps it should, but in practicality it doesn’t. It is pretty well established that the IRS does just about anything it wishes, regardless of the law, and generally gets away with it.
>>I’m thinking about making a new rule for the group: no telling us what we already know or further establishing what has already been “well established”. In the book Adrift: Seventy-six Days Lost at Sea by Steve Callahan, Steve recounts a number of hopeless situations while adrift in a raft on the open ocean, and in every situation he was left to his own resourcefulness and found a way. Matthew 19:26 & Mark 10:27 both say that all things are possible when the Creator is involved. The all things part starts with our own possibility thinking. Mark 9:23 states, “all things can be (are possible) to him who believes!” Moving to Panama, Costa Rica or Belize is not possible to some of us. Eddie Kahn’s situation pretty well proves that moving to another country is a flimsy solution where the “IRS does just about anything it wishes”. As for me, I’m not going to let you lock me into the frame of thought expressed in Revelation 13:4 where they, “worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?” Instead, I’m going with 1 Samuel 17:26 where David says, “who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living Mighty Creator?”
Lindsey Springer used the fact of non-existence of district directors in connection with another of their duties which can’t be performed if they don’t exist, and the court apparently never blinked an eye about it, and Lindsey is in the slammer.
>>I encounter people all the time that make the mistake of believing that if they compromise or cooperate it will be the end of the issue. There are people who signed and filed returns who are in the slammer too. (What a waste of typing that was 
)

All this is part of why I say there is no elegant, gentlemanly solution to any of the predations of the IRS. They have too much power, and receive too much support from judges who work for the same government and Congress which wants the money and does not care how it gets it.
>>My position on this is that all the power of the government rides in on the back of a man. I’m agreeing with Randy Kelton on this one, they may have never been prosecuted yet, but, do they want to be the first? If you’re they’re accuser on a crime, can they move forward against you administratively? The answer to the question is, no they cannot. If they do, they show the system is a sham.
>>The answer with respect to the judges support is a similar one, they’re filing returns taking the easy way instead of asserting their own rights as judges. They have a stake in any IRS proceeding.
The answer is the gentle form of brute force known as civil disobedience. It worked for the civil rights movement of the 1960′s and it worked for the Indians led by Gandhi.
>>I think I am already a participant. Do you have a plan to get around all the fear that is involved; all the people just laying low hoping the system doesn’t single them out?
“Instead of constantly looking for more and more magic bullets in the law
>>What do you suggest I do while you get the massive civil disobedience going? Are you suggesting I just lay still and wait for them to kick me?
“reduce withholding to as little as possible, file no returns, respond to no notices”
>>Do you want to support those who have regular jobs when they take their paychecks? What about when they take retirement checks and social security checks?
Millions of people are not smart enough to understand and learn a lot of fine points about the law.
>>Damn, if you were the judge, we could get all those laws thrown out as not being understandable by the common man.
Instead of sitting around poring over the code and the regulations looking for that magic bullet and hoping against hope…
>>I really don’t think you seriously are saying I should just let them walk all over me while I wait for 30 million people to get their act together? I’m not waiting! I’m getting into a can-do-frame-of-mind where all things are possible to him that believes. I’m not going to let you lock me into a frame of mind of nothing can be done; it’s all over but the sentencing. I’m getting into a frame of mind where the creative thinking of the subconscious mind is turned loose on the problem and solutions are arrived at that the realist/negative thinkers will never see. Jahushuwah said in John 12:31, “Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.” And in John 16:11, “…the prince of this world is judged.” Since the prince of this world has been judged and cast out, all that remains is for me to finish the job Jahushuwah started. In order to accomplish the task I must have the same frame of mind that David had in 1 Samuel 17; I must recognize that I am the one with the covenant and when Jahuwah fights for me it’s all over but the shout of victory.
Is that your “spiritual” ministry to fight humane government? All things are possible, but not all things are profitable; 0f course the question was “who can be saved?” Where did I read that? Who paid the temple tax and why was there no revolt against this tax? Perhaps so because to be “bothered” or to challenge the mischief would distract from His purpose for being here. Some used Roman law to only delay inevitable murder. In fact it can be said that death and sacrifice overcame the beast and not by playing the legal games or rules of the beast.
I wonder if an armed robber demands your property do you quote law in your defense? As that people use legalism to protect what they have (when they shouldn’t) or the gain of something at the expense of another, don’t you have legalized armed robbery? It’s simply civilized armed robbery; isn’t it? Even though found without guilt wasn’t the crucifixion and those that handed Him up to crucifixion violators of their “legalism” and otherwise good law. No matter the intent or purpose of good law, even by the Creator, in the hands of people it will be interpreted and administered with political mischief to protect what is owned or the gain of something at the expense of another’s simple right to exist and prosper by one’s own labor.
I don’t get the “fine points of law”. Isn’t that just holding your mouth open or closed in the right way to keep what was already yours? I don’t know. One way or the other you are robbed; either in property and of course the time required to exist or in time defending what you have which also takes away from your time to be productive or simply enjoy life.
Civilization, society and legalism are just the tools of polite violence.
