Larken is on the right track but stopped when he discovered a single abnormality, section 861 of the Code. He then preached that alone for many years, and went to jail for it. To oversimplify, he basically said all "income" is automatically foreign. If he had continued his research he would have understood why courts don't allow that defense and why there exists domestic income.
If you tell the IRS anything invalid and unsupported by law, such as "my earnings aren't income because 'income' is foreign", they laugh at you and enforce. It's essential to read the law for yourself and understand how much income you earn and to determine if there are any mistakes in any information returns that make incorrect income allegations. I answer questions but I don't explain too much at a time because it's essential that each person take responsibility. Larken is one who took responsibility for being wrong, but he hasn't done the research necessary to understand what he did wrong.
I think about this when someone brings up income tax. I think there is some truth to it.
During his address at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in February 2024, El Salvador's President Nayib Bukele argued that U.S. taxes do not actually fund the government.
