Another broken record... not nearly the first time posted on this forum...
Enterprises commonly considered a business, organizations like churches fall into this category as well, do not fit the definition of "trade or business" in US Code Title 26. Definitions in Title 26 (the pertinent ones to this assertion are in §7701) create new legal terms. Legal terms are not words as you and I understand their common meanings. They are spelled the same, pronounced the same, but as legal terms have very specific, narrow definitions. Their meaning has been obfuscated to lead even "educated" (mis- or mal-educated really, on purpose) CPAs to believe that the common meaning is in play.
It's disgusting what TPTB, in this case the federal legislature, so mostly lawyers (apologies to our esteemed host), have done with language, legalese, to scam The People. The (501)(c)(3) designation is yet another layer of disguise.
An in-depth, and I do mean in depth, examination of just what has been done with language in USC Title 26 (the tax code), including why common-parlance businesses do not fit the USC Title 26 definition of "trade or business," can be found in the deep, thorough text of 𝘊𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘊𝘰𝘥𝘦: 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘍𝘢𝘴𝘤𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘛𝘳𝘶𝘵𝘩 𝘈𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘛𝘢𝘹𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘪𝘯 𝘈𝘮𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘢 by Peter Eric Hendrickson. The book can now be read for free at the author's website:
It's dense, and lengthy, but SO worth the education. Nor do most Americans have a federal tax liability. Some do, most don't.
"Starve the beast" were words used by a commenter on C&C board recently by another educated American who posted they have gotten and are filing amended returns to get more $$ back paid to the IRS but belatedly discovered (after reading Cracking the Code) was not owed.
I'll take a look at this more carefully. Right now I have to fix Linux on the fritz. But I'm obliged. And thanks much.
And yes, everything is a corporation these days. And what isn't.
And now, we are supposed be owned by God. But the Christians are now all owned by the state. And of this, maybe one in 10,000 ... if that ... has the beginning idea of it!
So right, most are unaware. Keep throwing information out there. It will stick somewhere, even if only one small where. And, hopefully, they'll tell two friends, and they'll tell two friends... In my dreams the "good" news spreads like wildfire. Oh I make myself laugh 😄😂🤣
At least you're using Linux. Still functioning w Windows here. Not tech savvy. Could download the OS and fumble I suppose but time factors and learning curves...
I quit Windows because I read MSFT's Windows 8 EULA. One does not buy the Windows OS, one leases it. And the 'buyer' is a total Lease Slave. That made me very angry. So I jumped ship.
I used to buy the highest end machines with Nvidia graphics. That was a mistake. It much better to use a machine with integrated graphics built into the chip (CPU) whether it's AMD or Intel.
I you do decided to fumble, buy a cheap used machine say from eBay with Linux already loaded on it. $300.00 to $400 range, at least 16 RAM, 4 core or better CPU like Intel i5 or i7 integrated graphics. I have used many Linux operating systems. I always return to Linux Mint Cinnamon Desk Top. Easiest to use and customize and plenty of helps videos on YouTube. Also, the Software Store has about everything you would want. And adding programs using Flatpaks is duck soup.
Here is a very attractive machine at eBay ( for $369.00 ... and with a five year warrantee, free shipping and good return policy. You can run a second display with it which I like to do. Terrific deal for the money!
Thanks for the info. I should... do a lotta things. MSFT's EULA is one I never read. I read facebook's new TOU back in 2013 or whatever and said goodbye forever. Yahooo, goodbye. Google, as little as possible: you tube is so darn useful, tho, innit? To wit, your reference above. Can I put you in my hip pocket? Kidding but sorta not. Oh the adventures in tech for most of us older folks. Not all, just most I'm thinkin'. Appreciate your thoughts. Very much.
I'm just coasting on what I know which is not too much. I know how to get into BIOS/Computer settings, how to load operating systems. And operating system installers are very good, mostly automatic these days. I can format using GParted, and I can use the customising option on the operating system installers, but lately don't even bother. Linux Mint installer is very easy to use.
Best of wishes for the best of outcomes in this now very cussed world.
Well amen for automatic installers. The rest of tech references you made... what? Time to fire up Startpage but... yeahno, not happenin' today. Take a compliment: You're way ahead o' me.🙄Oof.
Take your time with the text. My experience 7 or 8 years ago involved cognitive dissonance. Every cell in my body was screeching, This *can't* be true!! You have a plandemic behind you. Might be easier to accept. I also embarked on verification. I won't dissuade you from that, but for as far as I got, maybe 2% of the whole, everything checked out. After that I gave him the benefit of the doubt. I also got angry, really angry. It's a ride. But worth it. I keep trying to tell people about this info but am dismissed again and again. Thanks for the early note that you're embarking. Not a quick read. As said, take your time. 💪
Probably so ... and Sir Broken Record here reporting for duty!
Not so--I figure always on needing to hear a message three times to make it stick (and taught that way, also)
