If a tax protester is trying to use the attorney to help him or her commit a future crime or fraud (tax fraud or evasion), the communication would generally not be covered by the attorney-client privilege.

If the tax protester is dealing only with a tax fraud or evasion he or she committed in the past, the attorney-client privilege generally should apply.

Lawyer-client privilege applies to tax cases in exactly the same manner that it applies to all other cases.

That's not an argument. It's a contradiction. :)

I'm going to be fair about this. I'm heading down to the library to get a bunch of DVDs of the old BBC Monty Python's Flying Circus and I'll analyze the realtive humor and quality of satire compared to the standard CTC or other tax deniers. Monty's facing pretty heavyweight competition however.
