At the time there were 48 states - and it was announced that at least 36 states had ratified it so it got added based on the Secretary of States announcement at the time saying that the ratification had happened
Unfortunately the Secy of State at the time lied - in reality only two states had ratified the amendment as written - and at least 4 of the 36 required that they used as proof had voted down the amendment according to their own voting records in-state (those states being Kentucky, Oklahoma, California and Minnesota I believe)
So when these people say that there really isnt a law - while there is an amendment they are basically saying that its an illegal law - which is probably correct and some of the loudest out there are not approached by the IRS even though theyve never paid taxes

good stuff and very true ;
The US Government cannot account for trillions of dollars. The DoD reported $1.1 trillion missing in FY 2000 alone!
What does this mean?
Trillions of dollars in "unsupported adjustments" means trillions of dollars unaccounted for. What's going on? Where is the money? How could this happen? Where are the checks and balances? How much more has gone missing? Is this happening in the other government agencies too? What would happen if a corporation failed to pass an audit like this? Or a taxpayer? Who is responsible for this? Who can we trust to fix it? ... see Frequently Asked Questions and Who's in Charge? for details.
