Episode Details

This source is an edited transcript from William Cooper’s radio program, "The Hour of the Time," featuring audio from a 1999 seminar titled "The Legality of Taxes." The text captures a series of presentations by pioneer researchers and former government agents who argue that the federal income tax is a fraudulent system lacking a valid legal foundation. Central to their thesis is the claim that the 16th Amendment was never properly ratified and that no existing law or regulation actually mandates that most citizens file tax returns. Individual speakers, such as Bill Benson and Joe Bannister, share personal accounts of uncovering corruption and resigning from state and federal agencies to expose what they describe as unconstitutional and treasonous practices. Ultimately, the text serves as a call to action for public education, urging listeners to research the law and challenge the government's taxing authority through civil and legal resistance.
