JFK Figured It Out

JFK put it like this: “We are opposed, around the world, by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies primarily on covert means for expanding its sphere of influence, on infiltration instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections, on intimidation instead of free choice. It is a system which has conscripted vast human and material resources into the building of a tightly knit and highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific and political operations. Its preparations are concealed not published, its mistakes are buried not headlined, its dissenters are silenced not praised. No expenditure is questioned, no secret is revealed.”

What\'s Income?
|
The famous words of Benjamin Franklin, from a letter written in 1789: "In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes." More popularly phrased: "There's nothing certain but death and taxes!"
Well, guess what, folks, someone's wrong. Is it the "tax honesty" community, also called "tax protestors," who remain firm in the belief that income tax is unlawful, and that there is in fact NO LAW that says we have to pay income tax? Aaron Russo created quite a bang with this concept in his much-circulated film "America: From Freedom to Fascism," as did Ed and Elaine Brown in their famous 2007 IRS standdown. "Show me the law," Ed Brown told the court as he and his wife were charged with hundreds of thousands of dollars owed in back taxes. The story of the Browns ended in tragedy, with both convicted for tax evasion. Yet it might have ended differently ... and perhaps it still can.
Enter a few very simple concepts, all securely rooted in statutory law. The issue is not one of income tax being unlawful, but of what legally qualifies as "income." Each year, millions of Americans report their earnings to the IRS, yielding a significant portion of this money to the government. An entire industry of paid professionals has sprung up to help in the calculations of these contributions. The onset of April 15th brings with it headaches, resentment and fear. Some defy the tradition altogether by refusing to file the notorious 1040 U.S. Individual Return.
In fact, the 1040 form is considered your own legal testimony about whether or not you were involved in taxable activities for a particular year. Here's what happens: Millions of people believe they are obligated to file INFORMATION RETURNS (W-2s, 1099s and K-1s) on each other every January and February. These government forms are intended for federal entities making federally connected payments. Why do non-government "employers" use them? Out of ignorance. The moment your name appears on such a form, a [rebuttable] presumption arises that you have engaged in a federally connected taxable activity and made money from it. Oops! "Employers" and issuers of these forms don't realize that they are also making themselves out to be "federal" payers. Thus the net is cast, trapping innocent fish of all kinds.

What Do Readers Say About Pete's Book? |
|
First off, thank thank you for writing it! I now realize the amount of work that you have put into this… I pray that tens of thousands purchase it. Again thanks!!! -- Ed Paquette, Canton NC
Thank you so much for your exquisitely documented and beautifully written "Cracking the Code." This book is a masterpiece of analysis, clarity and revelation." -- Christiane Sauter, Syracuse NY
After reading Pete's book twice, I can state without reservation that it is the finest work about the IRS ever written. While [Irwin Schiff and Phillip Marsh made] valid points, they both missed the main idea -- the income tax IS constitutional. In Pete's book, the truth is finally revealed. The income tax is valid ... but it doesn't apply to about 90% of American citizens. Pete has really done the research. -- Dave Simmons, Plant City FL
I have been studying this subject for 10 years and this is, by far, the best work I have seen on the subject. Not only is it enlightening, but it tells you how to proceed to get your money back if you should choose to do so. Thanks for your work. -- Brad Parsons, Cleburne TX
I just finished reading Cracking the Code yesterday and I must congratulate you on this fine piece of work. I have spent several thousand hours in the law library researching these and other legal issues, and your book is a masterpiece. -- Gerald Brown, Ed.D., author of Cooperative Federalism and co-author of In Their Own Words
Great stuff! Thanks for an excellent read and all the investigative historical research. I can now move forward with confidence. -- Ron Flick, Roland AR
I have read your CtC book twice. What a masterpiece! As a CPA and CFP (Certified Financial Planner), I had always suspected that something was wrong with the tax system. I am telling all of my clients about your book and I am helping them file past due or amended returns to obtain their rightful refunds. -- Don Gray, Portage MI
I cannot express how helpful "Cracking the Code" has been. Once I picked up your book, setting it down was not an option! Who could have guessed that a sound grasp on what the law ACTUALLY SAYS could utterly banish the multifarious voices of misinformation streaming from the bureau. -- J.K., Rhinelander, WI
Received your book yesterday. Started reading at 11 p.m., finished at 4 a.m. I have 16 feet (literally 16' 4.5") of documents supporting just about everything in your book. [It] should be required reading for every lawyer before being admitted to any Bar. I hope you sell a million of them. -- John Green, Spring, TX
I just started reading the book a couple of days ago. Talk about mind blowing. Your book is really helping me to understand what the tax system is all about. -- Elizabeth Larsen, Midland, MI
Wow!!!! I've been studying this for 10 years and haven't gotten anything as clearly as you have put it in your book. I will be ordering more copies to put into the hands of everyone I know!! I cannot thank you enough for your time and research. -- Joyce Cox, Afton, WY
The most important book about the federal income tax that I have ever read (and I've read some two dozen in twenty years). -- Pitman Buck Jr., author of The Colossal Fraud of Involuntary Perjury
One of the best, most readable [books] I have found in my 20 years of studying the IRS and the tax code, rules, regulations and administrative procedures. -- Steve Blumenthal, Salinas CA
I think your book is the best and most thorough analysis of the "Income Tax" law. The book is extremely well written. Almost no one has written about this subject with the clarity and precision you have ... I think your book is the one everyone should read. -- Joe Wert, Arlington, TX
Your book is exhaustively researched and a must have for anyone who is considering removing the government leech from their backside. Great stuff! -- Rick Jaensch, Annandale, VA
I have finished reading "Cracking the Code" -- it's excellent. It puts the government's sham of fraud and extortion into perspective. It finally all makes sense! I'm recommending your book to everyone I know. -- Ron C. Rector, Broadview Heights, OH
Thanks for all the work, research, and courage to act that you have put forth. I've been hammering away at understanding this ugly mess for years. The research and writings of so many other people, for which I've spent thousands of dollars, can't hold a candle to your laser. -- Val-David Smithson, Reno, NV
I have spent over $5000 on information regarding the IRS, and I consider your [$25] book the best piece of information that I have found. Thank you. -- Judy E., Raleigh, NC
"Cracking the Code" has shocked and amazed me. Everything checks out... a more important book has never been written. Reading it is like taking the red pill in the movie "The Matrix." Thanks for showing me just how deep the rabbit hole goes. -- Thomas H. deSabla, Silver Springs, MD
Many have attempted to research and sift the data, but your book and website alone separate truth from error substantively and consistently. Your explanations are always cogent and clear. You have given me the tools to be upfront with this information to my acquaintances credibly and authoritatively. Thank you. -- John J. Bulten, Tulsa, OK Need we say any more? Pete's work is THE BEST on the subject. Hands down. No one else comes close. No matter what people like to believe -- e.g., that the "income tax is unlawful" -- they're muddled and usually wrong. This is the only reliable method, and it takes a little courage to try it out. But once you take the plunge, YOU ARE FREE. One more comment from one more person:
Okay, so I read Pete's book. It made sense to me. But then I had to do it. That was a lot harder. I had to get psyched up. A friend of mine said to me, "Come on! How hard is it to write "0"?" I have to tell you -- even though it takes literally less than 5 minutes to fill out that form once you know what it's really for, what they really designed it for, what it REALLY MEANS, it took me weeks to do it. So I tell people to spend a lot of time getting ready to do this because you have to. In the end it only takes minutes to do, but it's your whole lifetime of conditioning that you have to break, and that's hard. Believe me, it's hard. Begin your journey!

Listen to Some Radio Interviews |
|
(1) Hear author Pete Hendrickson interviewed by Smallstorm on the RBN radio network. Pete explains the real nature of taxing Americans and takes a few phone calls.
(2) In a second RBN interview with Pete Hendrickson, we learn the original and true purpose of the 1040 Individual Income Tax Return -- a yeary way to get one's tax withholdings back, as the money being held in most cases is not for federal earners! (Click on August 1st show)
(3) Hear Smallstorm's 4-21-08 interview (after reading "Cracking the Code") on The Jeff Farias Show (NovaM Radio). Callers are intrigued by the concept, and it IS refreshingly simple!

"Cracking the Code" presents a VERY viable and successful alternative to being one of the "sheeple" and paying a tax that does not even apply to most Americans. Private-sector earnings are not considered "income" by the government, the law, and even the IRS itself, when finally placed in a corner (or reminded enough). Thus one can imagine why the Department of Justice is dead set on nailing point man Pete Hendrickson, who brought us all this amazing information.
If Pete is indicted (as he now has been) and placed on trial and put away, the CTC information will never go beyond its current popularity, and even then, perhaps only the bravest will continue to file 1040s as they were INTENDED to be used and collect their deserved returns. Pete is in trouble, fellow Americans!
WHAT'S GOING ON?
You can read about it on Pete's website, but in his elegant and understated way, he may not make it clear enough ... for important reasons. He feels it's vital not to scare new explorers away, which makes sense. However, if we do not rally around Pete and keep careful tabs on what happens here, {snippet paypalpete2}, the fascinating truth about income tax in America may die on the vine.
The charge: That defendant Pete Hendrickson (and he is being sued by us! you, me -- yes! -- "The United States of America vs. Pete Hendrickson") "[w]illfully [made] and [subscribed] any return, statement, or other document, which contains or is verified by a written declaration that it is made under the penalties of perjury, and which he does not believe to be true and correct as to every material matter." Thus, the shameful accusation: our Point Man Pete DOES NOT BELIEVE WHAT HE IS WRITING ON HIS OWN TAX RETURNS. That's a good one, huh? Imagine telling someone you're going to take them to court because they don't believe their own words. How would you prove that??
It's going to be tough, but as we know, the powers that be are good at making up the game as they go. We have to stand by Pete and not be afraid to tell people about his book, website, and the wonderful possibilities they open up. TPTB (powers that be) want to make us hesitate in every regard, to think we're at risk too, to stop the growing elephant of freedom in its tracks.
Who's going to read a book whose author is in trouble? Aha! But he's not in trouble for the content of his return ... he's in trouble for "not believing" what he wrote on his return! If anyone can explain that, it's worth a full-page ad in USA Today.
AGAIN, SUPPORT PETE. SEND $10 or $100 or more! IMAGINE IF EVERYONE IN THE UNITED STATES CONTRIBUTED TEN BUCKS ... not only would Pete have enough for brilliant legal defense, but we might see the end of this hydra that squeezes us for a big chunk of our earnings every dratted year. As Pete said on a recent radio show, "The income tax is a benign and lawful tax, not the voracious monster we have come to believe it to be." A reminder: The monster has developed only because we have been fooled by the need to file millions of "information returns" -- those government forms that cause us to unlawfully rat on one another as "federal earners" and thus compel us to pay the wretched and usually inapplicable tax!
DONATE!!! You can click on the word "DONATE" above, or you can send a check to Pete Hendrickson at 232 Oriole Road, Commerce Twp. MI 48382. This is VERY IMPORTANT. If Pete prevails, it may CHANGE the way income tax is understood by everyone in the United States. If you have read and benefitted from "Cracking the Code," send Pete the price of the book ($25) again for legal costs! At least! Or buy the book and give it to a friend. The only way to squish them is to do the grassroots thing and be bigger and wider and much, much more huge than they are. And little bits of $$ from thousands of people will be terrific.
One thing readers at large may not realize is that Pete's trial will be a watershed event for all of America. True, you or your neighbors may never have heard of Pete Hendrickson, but his work is ground-breaking and has the potential to put to bed -- forever -- the extortion called "income tax." Pete's first fund drive produced some $$ for his legal defense, but not enough. PLEASE SEND MORE. It should be your pleasure to send in even $10 -- in your own small effort to be part of a collective that not only exposes the IRS but empowers Americans to use the law to their benefit -- as it was intended. Once again, if Pete loses in this dog-and-pony show of a trial, you will not feel good about recommending "Cracking the Code," will you ... because how can you tell your friends to file their tax returns based on what they learn from a book whose author has been convicted? Remember -- the trial is NOT ABOUT THE WAY PETE FILED HIS TAXES. It's about how he feels about what he wrote on the forms ... for PETE'S SAKE, you say, that doesn't make any sense!
And it does not. But you know them. They can say anything and make us spend a lot of money proving them senseless. Read Pete's story of his indictment and his need for your help below.
