Firstly, many people who advocate not paying U.S. Federal taxes earn so little income that the IRS likely doesn't even notice; if they do, won't bother pursuing the matter.
Secondly, the "elite" (people in power) make the rules ... the laws are smoke and mirrors for the average joe schmoe - giving people a sense they have protected rights when they often don't...
See how far the 4th amendment gets one if they are growing cannabis (marijuana) in the privacy of their own home ...
See how far the 1st amendment gets one who merely possesses (not even talking a producer) of "obscene" material, which itself isn't clearly defined; it's whatever the "elite" considers it to be for their convenience ...
Rights to a fair trial don't apply to all U.S. citizens; secret laws, secret trials, secret prisons ... all very spooky - sounds like the former U.S.S.R. and yet this is America 2006 ... and to be real, such shanagans isn't new, but has further expanded in the past 10 years; the Clinton administration were no saints either in that they allowed / supported such activities too.
In a nutshell, the law is what the "elite" (people in power) say they are to fit their agenda. All this talk about the U.S. Federal income tax being Constitutional or not doesn't mean diddly to them...
Sure occasionally a person here and there gets lucky challenging a law they disagree with, but that's about the same odds as winning the lottery, and it will likely cost that much too in time and effort - it's a gamble most people realistically aren't able to take and thus they are basically forced to tow the line ... ie. pay taxes as directed.
