Many of y'all here will probably get a kick out of this. My hairdresser has gone full-on crazy. She has always been a bit of a Jesus freak and just edge of wacky for my taste (suggesting crazy sounding health tips/products, seems easily swayed to out-there ideas), but now seems to have gone full on conspiracy theory anti-government. Stuff about the IRS being a for profit corporation operated out of England. She is "suing" them for $200,000 for taxes paid that she claims they had no right to. She was going o about how we are all suckered because we do not read the laws, but SHE has now and SHE (with no law training or education) understands them. Interest is a scam. Mortgages are a scam. Companies that send you invoices (she swears they only send statements) that say you owe X amount, never say who you owe it to and you can sign those over to yourself. I DO NOT EVEN KNOW. I bantered with her a bit on it. Addressed how I had signed contracts with service providers and was paying for services they provide, that I want, and that I cannot get without them (internet, cell phone service, electricity). I pointed out that these companies actually have agreements I have signed that spell out terms. On the other hand, I have no written and signed agreement with my company for payment for my services and I sure as hell would be upset if they announced they were under no obligation to pay me at the rate that had been or for the tasks I have been doing. (I will add here, that she is not like, living off the grid or anything and she was happy as pie to take credit card payment). off her gourd.
Anyhoo - I was looking for anything on the web discounting her claims, showing where attempts at lawsuits failed or whatnot, but I don't think I care enough to fall down that rabbit hold.
This seems to be a guy's fb page that she is getting a bunch of the stuff from. [link]
please go entertain yourselves law and government type folks.
