Honestly, makes sense. If I believed that rule of law was real, this might even stand up
It's just not though. The law is what people believe it to be
...except the IRS isn't a state agency
What is a state vs the state? It's pretty sloppy in the US... I'd need way more context at a minimum
Does it make sense? I'm not following their logic (which is normal for these)
Yes, because federal reserve notes (aka fiat currency) wasn't a thing when the basic frameworks were established. Hell, it was just straight up fraud that created it, the problem just got out of hand and so they put a bandaid on the problem... It's a fundamentally nonsensical system
There's probably tons of unpatched laws that don't take this into account, or even explicitly carve this out
Our laws are a crazy mess
