But I also question whether you have the right to demand that response….2) As for Americans avoiding taxes–you miss the point entirely: seeking tax shelters and restructuring your wealth to avoid paying taxes is not illegal (as long as your strategies operate within the letter of the law) and it’s not unpatriotic. I give you Associate Supreme Court Justice Learned Hand in 1947: “there is nothing sinister in so arranging one’s affairs as to keep taxes as low as possible”Perry, this is the way the US Constitution works: no ex post facto laws. If what people did to earn and shelter income was legal at the time they did so, then you cannot make it illegal retroactively. You can legislate to make it illegal in the future, but you cannot go back for a “do-over” to punish people who acted legally.As for your Constitutional theory, it’s the living document theory, which is legitimate, but….You still have to go through the process, either in the courts or through amendment, to change or interpret the damn thing. As you pretty much admit, this has not yet been done….

This is pretty much all the forms, 1040, 1040 voucher, schedule a, b, etc. Turbotax says they will e-mail me when forms are ready. It’s already April 4, what’s going on with the forms?
