From tzs@u.washington.edu Jun 8 1994 If anyone wants to see how an actual court would deal with an argument that "United States includes X, Y, and Z" is meant to exclude the states, see 833 F.2d 1538. In case anyone wants a nice introduction to assorted tax protest arguments, and what happens when someone actually tries these in court, here are the cites from Westlaw for all cases in the ALLFEDS database (all reported Federal cases) that had Becraft as one of the attorneys. One of them is a different Becraft, but I don't remember which. 1. U.S. v. Sasscer, --- F.3d ---- (Table, Text in WESTLAW), Unpublished Disposition, 1994 WL 233221 (4th Cir. 1994 2. U.S. v.
