How does the IRS know if you do not have health insurance?

[Danke]

You mean this?
1. Contention: Taxpayer is not a “citizen” of the United States, thus not subject to the federal income tax laws.
Some individuals argue that they have rejected citizenship in the United States in favor of state citizenship; therefore, they are relieved of their federal income tax obligations. A variation of this argument is that a person is a free born citizen of a particular state and thus was never a citizen of the United States. The underlying theme of these arguments is the same: the person is not a United States citizen and is not subject to federal tax laws because only United States citizens are subject to these laws.

Not misleading, but superficial, perhaps.

Doesn't the IRS have a law against trying to use laws to not have to pay taxes?

Not that I have ever heard of, only for committing acts of fraud, failing to file, underreporting, erroneously filing, negligent filing, impeding administration, frivolity, etc.

"There is no law" proponents object to the legal equation of "wages" as "income".

More correctly, they object to the ratification of the XVI Amendment.

Generally speaking, wages are income, but are only taxable for the purposes of the individual income tax when such wages or income falls under the contextual meaning of ‘gross income’, so being constitutional income.

Pointedly, the “‘wages’ are ‘income’” argument is really a withholding argument, as pertaining to Subtitle C of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC); it’s a red-herring.

The IRS in its own Internal Revenue Manuel (IRM) even clarifies that not all income that comes in is taxable as ‘gross income’.

No he didn't mean that. You are gonna have to actually do some research. This ain't nambypambyville yer waltzing around in here with your skewed and inculcated and programmed reality drizzling out into this forum. People here ACTUALLY KNOW THE TIME OF DAY. There are 22 categories of income that are liable for taxation under IRS rules. Go figure out if you are under those rules. Most aren't but pay through the nose anyways due to ignorance and fear. Yer obviously in fear or an enforcer. Whoever you are I don't like your threats ands terminology. You are a big part of the problem IMO>

In many states, you are charged "room and board" for every day you are in prison.

I can honestly see where you would get charged for health insurance premiums as well.

In my state they charge people a fee if not in jail as well , house arrest , probation etc
