Episode Details

In this broadcast of The Hour of the Time, William Cooper presents a provocative argument asserting that federal income tax is a voluntary system for most Americans. He begins with a satirical historical narrative, comparing the legal profession to parasitic vermin that have long manipulated society through secret societies and the American Bar Association. Cooper’s central thesis is that the Internal Revenue Code, specifically Title 26, only mandates withholding for non-resident aliens and foreign corporations, meaning most citizens are not legally required to pay if they understand how to properly claim their status. To navigate this, he promotes the Pilot Connection Society, an organization he claims uses code-based strategies to help individuals legally avoid taxes by following the law explicitly rather than through "protester" arguments. Ultimately, the text serves as a call for listeners to overcome their fear and ignorance by studying legal dictionaries and utilizing professional assistance to reclaim their financial freedom.
