A recent entry from Irwin Schiff

The government sues you, and then steals your records so you can't adequately defend yourself. The raid occurred while I was involved in discovery in connection with the $ 2-1/2 million dollar lawsuit in which the Government seeks to reduce to judgment the assessments it made from the coerced returns I filed during my 1991 probation violation hearings. I had submitted to the government about 200 admissions which would have forced the government to admit that IRS revenue agents have no authority to seize anything in connection with income taxes. However the U.S. attorneys refused to answer the bulk of these admissions, and gave nonsensical reasons for avoiding having to do so. I have attached some of these admissions and their answers.

I've never personally met Irwin Schiff, but I've read his books and have a great deal of respect for him. Like many true patriots, he has paid a lofty price in our fight for tax freedom.
