     Ever since I got a well paying job and realised how much I was
going to be expected to pay in taxes, I have been interested in the
subject of how much was the government really entitled to.
     I have spent considerable amounts of time at a university law
library, and have read a number of books in the 'tax protest' genre.
Some of the statements made by the authors of these books seem to be
valid, others are not supported by the facts.

     Some of the areas I have looked into are
     o  Whether wages constitute 'income' for tax purposes
     o  What is the nature of a Federal Reserve Note (small piece of   
          paper commonly referred to as a dollar, five dollars, etc.)
     o  Is an individual obligated to file a form 1040?

     I would be interested in sharing what I have found out and
finding out what other people know on the subject, but, since
it could get rather long winded, I'm asking for what topics folks
are interested in.
