To Harass Our People: The IRS and Government Abuse of Power

by congressman George Hansen

As Congressman George Hansen reminds us, an old maxim states that "the power to tax is the power to destroy."
In this chilling expose of the IRS, we learn that:
*only the IRS can attach 100 percent of a tax debtor's wage and/or property
*only the IRS can invade the privacy of a citizen without court process of any kind
*only the IRS can seize property without a court order
*only the IRS can force a citizen to try his case in a special court governed by the IRS
*only the IRS can legally, without a court order, subject citizens to electronic surveillance
We also learn of recent armed searches conducted by IRS agents, of "hit lists," of snooping, of harassment, entrapment and a myriad of other horrors that are actually happening in our republic.
And we learn that there are things we can do to fight the IRS.
