if you have been filing every year and you work for someone and receive a w-2 or a 1099 then the irs is notified of your income and they will probably estimate you tax libility and send you an assessment after a few letters asking you to file. most of the people who are not filing are working in the underground economy and the irs does not know the amount of their income. these are people who work for cash, operate in flea markets etc.

the irs makes it a high priority to go after those who publisize to others that they are tax protestors. there is alot of discussion about the legality of taxation of wages but the problem is the courts are set up to prosecute you to the fullest extent of the law. there are a few people who have won but for every one of them there are thousands in jail. this is one battle that is nearly impossible to win. I like being able to sleep at nights so i pay my taxes.
