>Failure to file or filing fraudulently are, of course, offenses that risk jail time.

So the income tax is a grotesque violation of Human Rights and should be abolished.

I fail to see how it's a violation of human rights to make fraud illegal.

It's a human rights violation to demand someone give up their privacy and disclose their income, and then to demand that they hand over a share of the currency they receive in private trade.

To even categorise refusal to disclose one's personal income as "fraud" (which is an entirely different behavior) is political language to rationalise this human rights violation.

I was only asking about actual fraud, not failure to file. I thought you were calling both violations of human rights.
