IRS Director Admits Taxes Are Voluntary 2013
Steve Miller, former Director of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), admitted at a Congressional hearing that the taxes collected by the IRS are not mandatory — but voluntary.
When questioned at the House Ways and Means Committee (WMC) hearing last week, Miller told House Representative Devin Nunes that “America’s tax system is ‘voluntary'”.
When Nunes remarked for clarification that the US tax code is a “voluntary system”, Miller said, “Agreed.” House Representative Xavier Becerra commented that the ruse of the IRS is kept as a public confidence in the system scheme to keep Americans paying money to the IRS. Miller confirmed this is so.
The shuffle at the IRS has landed Danny Werfel as the new acting director.
