People, this kind of war doesn't get won by the side that tries to stay in the shadows, or that can't be bothered to get involved...
"It does not take a majority to prevail... but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men."

As we all know, seeing is believing, and more people will watch a ten-minute video than will read a web page or printout. Having watched the remarkable outreach success of the video presentations made to promote the Ron Paul Revolution, I think that the truth about the income tax needs to take a page from that play-book.
Therefore, I'm asking everyone to spend a few minutes in front of his or her webcam to record a brief testimonial to be included in a video compilation that I suspect will help get the word out like nothing else. An example of what I mean can be seen here [link not reproduced]. This is recorded at 640 x 480, VGA format, and saved as a .wmv (Windows movie file). (.Avi, .mpeg1 or .mpeg2 formats are also fine, but please try to stick with one of these.) Finished file size is about 1.5MB for this statement, the text of which is, "I'm (your name). I learned the fascinating truth about the income tax at losthorizons.com. Then I filed a tax return knowledgably for the first time in my life and got back every penny withheld from me, including Social Security taxes."
This script should be modified if appropriate to your victory. For instance, yours might be:
"I'm _________. I learned the fascinating truth about the income tax at losthorizons.com. Then I shut down an IRS "deficiency proceeding" and got a nice, polite "closing notice" from from the agency by acting on my new knowledge of the law," or,
"I'm ________. I learned the fascinating truth about the income tax at losthorizons.com. Since then I have filed tax returns knowledgably for the first time in my life and have gotten back every penny withheld from me, including Social Security taxes, for three years now," or,
"I'm ________. I learned the fascinating truth about the income tax at losthorizons.com. Since then I have filed tax returns knowledgably for the first time in my life and have gotten hard-copy IRS acknowledgements that I had no taxable income for the years involved, and owed no taxes at all."
I'm ________. I learned the fascinating truth about the income tax at losthorizons.com. Then I filed a tax return knowledgably for the first time in my life. I haven't gotten my money back yet, but as soon as that accurate return went in the mail, I got back my dignity as a confident, self-governing free American."
Show the checks, notices, transcripts and so forth, as I have done in the example. Keep the clip short (but unrushed). If you are inspired to add something motivational after the script, please do! Just keep it to a single, concise additional sentence. Then email me your clip, and we'll show the YouTube world that free men and women don't wait on some political (or other) process before exercising their rights.
By the way, everyone is more than welcome to also create and post complete videos of their own, as well...
