Determined to find the law that requires American citizens to pay
income tax, producer Aaron Russo 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 and FBI agents and 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. Russo also interviews a
sympathetic Ron Paul.
