“Deficiencies remain concerning (1) material weaknesses in
internal control over… information security, (2) a significant deficiency in
its internal control over tax refund disbursements, (3) a noncompliance with
the law concerning the timely release of tax liens, and (4) financial
management systems’ lack of substantial compliance with FFMIA requirements.”

research that proved that the Sixteenth Amendment was never legally ratified.
In this presentation on Freedom’s Radio, Red explains how
the computer-generated transcripts introduced into evidence by the IRS at due
process hearings or in Tax Court, do not, according to repeated General
Accounting Office reports, meet required legal standards for accuracy,
trustworthiness, reliability, and data security. Accordingly, by objecting to
these IRS transcripts and having them disallowed as evidence of record, a
defendant will have removed the only evidence the IRS can present, thereby
effectively destroying the IRS case.

describe exactly how this objection should be made.
Here are several links to examples of GAO reports describing
the many problems with the IRS information technology system. As Red explains,
IRS computers are not capable of automatic calculation of individual income tax
data. All such calculations are made by hand by IRS agents and the results
manually entered into IRS computers. This brings into sharp focus the
well-known observation that no two IRS agents are likely to achieve the same
result on any set of input data for an individual income tax return.

However,
serious internal control and financial management systems deficiencies
continued to make it necessary for IRS to use resource-intensive compensating
processes to prepare its balance sheet. Because of these and other internal
control, compliance, and system-related deficiencies, IRS did not, in GAO’s
opinion, maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of
September 30, 2011, and thus did not have reasonable assurance that losses and
misstatements material to the financial statements would be prevented or
detected and corrected timely.

noncompliance with the law concerning the timely release of tax liens, and
(4) financial management systems’ lack of substantial compliance with FFMIA
requirements. The continuing material weakness in internal control over unpaid
tax assessments results primarily from IRS’s reliance on financial management
systems that do not substantially comply with FFMIA requirements and that
affect IRS’s ability to produce reliable financial statements without
significant compensating procedures.

“Also in fiscal year 2007, IRS continued to have a
material weakness in internal control over information security. In particular,
it had deficiencies in its controls over access to the automated systems and
software applications it relies upon to process its financial transactions,
produce its internal and external financial reports, and safeguard related
sensitive infiltrations. As result, IRS was limited in its ability to
provide reasonable assurance that (1) its financial statements, taken as a
whole, were fairly presented; (2) the financial information IRS relied on to
make decisions on a daily basis was accurate, complete, and timely, and (3)
proprietary financial and taxpayer information was appropriately safeguarded.”

If The People realized that the authority

The People, and they realized that The People could set up People’s
Boards of Government Review to oversee ALL
government activity for the purpose of holding Elected, Appointed and
Commissioned government actors accountable to their Oaths of Office, then is
it possible that the solution has always been in the hands of The People?
