The Film: Determined to find the law that requires American citizens to pay income tax, producer Aaron Russo ("The Rose," "Trading Places") set out on a journey to find the evidence. This film which is neither left, nor right-wing is a startling examination of government. It exposes the systematic erosion of civil liberties in America since 1913 when the Federal Reserve system was fraudulently created. Through interviews with U.S. Congressmen, a former IRS Commissioner, former IRS, FBI agents, Tax Attorneys and Authors, Russo connects the dots between money creation, federal income tax, and the national identity card which becomes law in May 2008. This ID card will use Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) chips, which are essentially homing devices used to track people (Tr2012: Makes me think of the new chips placed in Visa and MasterCards recently?). This film shows in great detail and undeniable facts that America is moving headlong into a fascist police state (NWO). Wake up!

America: Freedom to Fascism is a compelling and troubling account of how the wealth of our nation was silently passed from its citizens to a handful of powerful bankers in 1913. That's the year the Federal Reserve Act, and the 16th Amendment were introduced, giving a privately held corporation (totally illegal) the means to control our finances, while ensuring its interest payments through the strong arms of the newly-formed Internal Revenue Service. Ever since then, Russo suggests Americans have been gradually conditioned to accept fewer freedoms and a lowering standard of living... all the while considering debt and servitude as distinctly American values.
Russo's first and most cogent point is simple: Americans are not required to pay a federal income tax. That's a bold statement to make, as few people believe that such a fraud could be perpetrated for so long. My father, himself an accountant, insists that the income tax is a very real thing. Russo takes that same belief to IRS employees and simply asks them to cite where it says an unapportioned income tax is required of us all. Guess what? They can't. In a telling segment Sheldon Cohen, former commissioner of the IRS, goes so far as to reject Supreme Court rulings and the Constitution as benchmarks over what is legal with regards to taxation. Russo also interviews members of the Tax Honesty Movement as well as disenfranchised IRS agents, who agree that no law on the books conjures up a requirement to send the government part of one's hard-earned paycheck. Russo then showcases court cases where those accused of tax evasion have won precisely because the prosecution cannot provide evidence of a legal federal income tax law!
Tr2012: Please note that the same illegal structure and corruption applies here in Australia too, between the Federal Reserve, ATO (Australian Taxation Office), and the Government. Though, note that the Australian Government has absolutely NO CONTROL over the Federal Reserve Bank. AND, further more there is nothing FEDERAL about it!
It's shocking to have it hammered into your head over and over that you've thrown your money away for nothing, but repetition is good; it helps knock loose the deeply entrenched belief that we owe a portion of our livelihood to our government.
Our friend and hero, Aaron Russo has passed: Esteemed filmmaker, ardent activist and loyal patriot Aaron Russo lost his battle to cancer on August 24, 2007 at the age of 64.
Aaron will be profoundly missed but always remembered. He was a husband, father, friend, mentor, and inspiration to many.
Aaron's long list of achievements includes his work in the areas of filmmaking and political activism. His documentary film, "America: From Freedom to Fascism", debunked the justification of both the IRS and the Federal Reserve as well as exposed their crooked basis. This movie received widespread acclaim, including opening to standing ovations at the Cannes Film Festival.
Congressman Ron Paul was also featured in the documentary, in which he presents his views on the economy and the Federal Reserve.
Aaron's work in the realm of activism proved to be invaluable and selfless. He will be perpetually revered as a true patriot and tireless fighter for our freedom. We must continue to venerate Aaron's legacy as we move forward by honouring his great words, "There are no boundaries one must adhere to when preserving one's liberty".
