secondly there are many cases where the IRS has accepted gold and silver as forms of payment. google has the answer.

I was wondering about this myself. If you're willing to go thru the hassle of getting arrested the IRS will probably extract payment in any way they can find via confiscation.

I haven't paid any tax in over 10 years...

Please, share your wisdom.

No wisdom. I live as a tourist in a country where the only people who pay tax are the ones working for large corporations. Everyone else is below the tax threshold (officially that is, this whole country works under the table). A key element here is that this country does not tax foreign income or holdings unless brought into the country. And not being American that greedy government can't make a claim on any worldwide income.

(btw I'm not breaking any tax laws. I choose to live simply in a place where the cost of living is low. So I never have to spend much. Anyone can live like this if they prefer it to the rat race.)
