If you want to bring that up as well, how can you fill out and sign
(required) a tax return without waiving your 5th amendment rights?
There was a court case and the judge said the case cant be cited since
it would destroy the income tax system, I do not have a cite, and there
appears to be a ton of crazy people latching onto a similar concept
making google harder than I care for it to be right now.

There is also a 4th amendment argument since you are compelled to
disclose your financial papers without warrant, although that one is
weaker due to the 16th amendment, nothing in the 16th states that it
allows for a removal of the 4th.
