THE BERLIN WALL AND THE INCOME TAX/IRS
In 1985, I was in Germany and met a banker who was very friendly with the West German political leaders. I asked him when he thought that the Berlin Wall was going to come down. He said that it would come down, but not in his lifetime. Four years later the Berlin Wall came down and shortly afterwards Germany was reunified.
Like the Berlin Wall, the continued existence of the IRS and income/payroll tax is a threat to our freedom and negatively affects our prosperity.
Like the East Germans who were kept out of West Berlin and denied political and economic freedom by the Berlin Wall, most Americans know that the IRS and income/payroll tax are attacks on an American citizen’s political and economic freedom.
However, the Ruling Elite in Germany that used the Berlin Wall to control its citizens is no different than the Ruling Elite here in America that uses the income/payroll tax to control Americans.
While the German Elite used the Stasi, their secret police, the D.C. Elite use the IRS.
The D.C. “Deep State” is dedicated to following the orders of the Ruling Elite and protecting their own positions.
For years, FAIRtax supporters have run into the solid wall of bureaucrats and elected officials who smile and offer reassurance, but do nothing to remove the income/payroll tax system from around the necks of U.S. citizens.
On November 5, 2024, Americans elected Donald Trump and since he took office he has repeatedly advocated:
- Eliminating the income tax.
- Shipping 88,000 IRS agents to patrol the border instead of harassing Americans.
- Funding the government with tariffs or a combination of tariffs and other consumption taxes not requiring an income tax or the IRS.
- Eliminating regulations not actually approved by Congress but promulgated by unelected bureaucrats.
- Eliminating waste in the federal government.
President Trump hears the overwhelming approval of his audience when he speaks about these topics and knows that this type of thinking and objectives are the main reason he was elected.
He has ordered all federal departments to give the DOGE committee access to all non-classified records.
One of the areas where bureaucrats have created mind-numbing regulations without Congressional oversight and direction is regarding the income tax and the IRS powers. The President knows that he can eliminate a vast number of regulations by eliminating the income tax and the IRS, and that a great majority of the American people will support this action.
CONCLUSION
Without President Reagan’s constant attacks on the failure of the communist governments to provide for their people, the Berlin Wall might still be standing. It’s interesting to note that many of the elites in DC strongly urged the President not to be so confrontational. Still, Mr. Reagan pressed on, and on June 12, 1987, at the Brandenburg Gate, President Reagan famously told Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev, “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!”
Two years later the Berlin Wall was no more.
Now we have a president that:
- Acts in the best interests of the American people and not for the Ruling Elite and their minions.
- Takes actions that show he is not afraid of the Ruling Elites and their minions and that he is seeking to hold these people liable for their acts against the American people and the law.
- Clearly sees the income tax and the IRS as tools for Ruling Elite and their minions and as an enemy of the American people’s freedom and prosperity.
Many of you have labored tirelessly for freedom from the federal income tax and the IRS. You deserve a great deal of credit for your efforts to educate the American people on the need to fund the American government in a way that is good for America and returns freedom to the American people.
It is imperative, though, that we don’t replace the current income tax and the IRS with an alternative system that can still be manipulated by the Ruling Elite. We must let Congress and the President know that the best way to replace the income tax and the IRS is with the FAIRtax.
Make no mistake about it. The FAIRtax is a grave threat to the Ruling Elites. It will strip them of their power and their ability to control us though the tax system. Their opposition to the FAIRtax will be fierce and unrelenting. And don’t think for an instant that they won’t use half-truths, deception and downright lies in their desperate attempt to hang on to their power.
However, with the support of this President, we can finally eliminate the income tax and the IRS!!!
Of course, the best course of action is to not only repeal the income tax and abolish the IRS but to repeal the 16th Amendment as well so no future administration can ever shackle the American people with an income tax again.
We must come together and ensure that real tax reform, the FAIRtax, is not subverted by the Elites in D.C.
This will take the diligent efforts of all of us. We need your financial assistance, and we need your grass roots assistance.
If you have contacts that will allow us to get more information to President Trump about the FAIRtax please let us know.
Please email us at info@fairtax.org and we will give you some options on how you can best help us.
At a minimum, please call your Congressional representative and ask if he or she supports the FAIRtax. If so, thank him/her for their support and suggest they become a cosponsor of HR-25 if they’re not one already. If not, ask why not. If your representative claims to be unfamiliar with the FAIRtax, offer to have someone come to their office and explain it to them.

THE SOLUTION—PASS THE FAIRTAX!
Why would D.C. pass the FAIRtax and give up this almost unlimited source of donations? The only way that they will is if the rest of us demand it!
Isn’t it time to end this ludicrous tax collection system and the IRS?
