Pay your tax - If you cheat the government and get caught you have to re-pay them every penny you cheated them out of + insane interest + fines.
Basically your fucked. To avoid this just pay the damn tax.

I don't see how anyone from the US can get away with NOT paying taxes - unless you go with all non-us sponsors.
Maybe some don't realize as AMP said you will get a 1099 at the end of the year.
Don't pay taxes and about 1 - 2 years from now you will get a nice notice from the IRS that asking you to file an ammended 1040 or an explanation as to why you shouldn't have to. I got one of these as I forgot to report some income that was reported to the IRS. It is no big deal - as my deductions will cancel that out, but it would be if it was REAL income.
By that time - you will have a nice amount of Interest and Penalties built up.
Of course - if you make less than $600 per sponsor - you might be able to skate.
Paying taxes sucks ass - but it is better than paying taxes, penalties, and interest.
If you make any decent money - I just don't get how you can get away with this. Even if you can - why take the risk?
you should pay your taxes but we are all buisness owners here and the amount of write offs you can use the goverment will be lucky if they can make most of us pay on more than 10 grand
did you know that you can claim up to some where around $100 a day without recipts at least thats what my Italian account told me ( don't need anybody to be offened by my wop reference I am myself half wop)

If you make tiny bit of money this is true.
But if you start cashing $10K checks every month (in any country) they will wonder whats up if you don't report this.

We Canadians don't have to worry about RevCan
hunting us down for not filing. ...we get in trouble
for filing incorrectly.
FILE if you earn more than $6000cdn in a single year.
If you get nailed for something else on your filing and
they check banking records, YOU'RE SCREWED. The fines
are not worth the "forgetting" to fill in the other income
source box.

Use an international remailing service for your sponsors inside the US. Get a UK address, tell 'em you've moved there, remove your SS# from their records, and bam.. no more 1099 reporting. Of course if you make alot of money, this would probably be worse than paying taxes. You could never have a bank account, you would have to make sure all your checks are below 10k to avoid automatic IRS reporting, never be able to buy anything on credit.. and so forth.
If you are a US citizen you'd probably be better just moving to Canada as an "illegal" and getting your checks sent there. You wouldn't have to pay taxes to Canada, because they'd have no idea you were living there, and the US probably couldn't touch you.

That's a dumb argument man... trash pickup is not paid for by the federal government LOL... as for police -- I never call them -- in fact I hope they all die slow and painfully.
Well sure we have things like the food and drug administration, yadda yadda... There's actually a book abour tax evasion in Barns & Noble... There's a certain level where you have to worry about arrest -- and I think it's only after you owe $100,000 in taxes...
Anyway I never chose to be born in the USA so I don't see why I should have to pay taxes if I'm self employeed. If they can't figure out a way to tax my paychecks then they shouldn't expect me to cover for their shortcomings by doing a lot of unnecessary paperwork on my own time. I just love it when the government thinks it's my responsibility to do all sorts of senseless paperwork for their lazy asses... Come to my house -- then we can do biz.
Just call the IRS Marcus, they'll get you set up. You can call 1-800 829 1040 for info. Much better than having to come up with one lump sum at the end of the year.
Well the IRS can levy your possessions too -- so it's best to pay them if you have property that you don't want them to seize... Or you can live on the run...

haha, you guys still have not figured out that the "income" tax system is voluntary.
Take a look at the IRS Tax Code (Title 26). There is no law that makes you "liable" to pay, or even file.
But do not take my word for it, our own Secretary of Treasury PAUL O'NEILL
"Look at our tax system. If people didn't voluntarily comply, there
is no way that we could collect $2 trillion worth of money from the
population without willing cooperation."
LAJeff - that is true... but that is is EVERYONE didn't willingly comply. If only a small % of people aren't paying, they can (and probably will) track them down.
I really expected to see at least 90% yes in the poll. Amazing.
I'd be willing to wager that very few of the people who don't pay taxes on their income make more than $10k per year in this business. All the big hitters are too smart to try to get away with it. It's just not worth it.
not paying taxs shows to the goverment if you don't have a day job that you are not making any money..
there for next time you make a purchase that ask for any kinda mainline info about you like circuit city purchases where you have to tell them youy full name and other things so you can be put into their system, our when you buy a car, purchase anything where a photo id is scanned all this info is in some cases used for other to file taxs
and then the goverment is like how did this guy/girl buy a 80k car if they are broke. thus having the IRS on your ass and then their contacting you asking for XXX,XXXk for your past years taxs
i know this cause it happened to a friend of mine who in one month made 400k and never claimed any taxs and got caught and owed more then 100k to the IRS and they collected like a mofo on his ass needless to say he now keep money back for taxs
uh...paying taxes is what will get you a fat loan, a fat house, a fat line of credit, a fat car, a fat boat, and other big things which make the world go round.
So, if you're not paying, you will never have the ability to participate in any significant way in our economy anyways.
You guys are missing the picture. You Volunteer your assessment, and you Volunteer your paying. There is not law that makes anyone "Liable" to pay Income taxes. You think that if you dont pay income taxes then you are cheating some how.
Look in the IRS tax code in the Index, and look up Liability for Tax.
There is not mention of Income taxes.
I pay taxes every day, when I fill up my car with gas, pay my phone bill, taxes on the house. And every year, I file "0" on my 1040 return, done that for the past 6 years.
Problems with the irs. You ask ? None, cause the irs has no authority. If you read the Tax code book, the only person that can asses taxes is the Secretary of Treasury. He must send out a notice and demand for payment, and he will never will send out this notice, cause there is no income tax.
In Czech we have a sales tax 22.5% added to luxury goods, photographic and porn qualify as luxuries.
So when you buy anything in CZ you pay the tax and when you sell anything you charge the tax. At the end of the quarter, you total up what you paid out deduct it from what you charged and pay the goverment the money.
Only thing is we sell nothing in CZ, so every quarter they give us money back.
