I've heard stories of people asking the IRS to prove that you have to, and they balk, and can't find it. hmm
kind of off the beaten path..maybe any lawyer types around know of this?
Rent "Maxed out" on netflix the first half is about predatory consumer credit, the second half shows several people serving time because they also felt there was no law requiring a federal tax return. The argument is well documented and there appears to be no law that can be produced - but they're still in jail.
It's worth renting for the consumer credit bit alone.
