All the "experts", and specifically the one whose post I am replying to,
will not acknowledge that:

A "Statutory Definition" is NOT
a "Dictionary Definition".

The expert I am replying to has succinctly stated his contrary belief:

7701(c) is real simple. Take whatever
is in the definition in Websters and
Blacks, and then add to that definition
whatever is listed after the word
include(s/ing). So if you qualify under
the DICTIONARY definition, you are one.
http://groups.google.com/group/misc.taxes/msg/213a668f86110bfd

It is clear from this citation, that the present expert believes a
"Statutory Definition" IS a "Dictionary Definition".

Logic proves that IF a "Statutory Definition" IS a "Dictionary
Definition", THEN there is NO PURPOSE for definition section 7343.


Sec. 7343. Definition of term "person"

-STATUTE-
The term "PERSON" as used in this chapter
includes an officer or employee of a corporation,
or a member or employee of a partnership,
who as such officer, employee, or member
is under a duty to perform the act in respect
of which the violation occurs.

My dictionary defines a person as "A human being or an organization with
legal rights and duties."

The following are human beings with legal rights and duties:

An officer of a corporation;
An employee of a corporation;
A member of a partnership;
An employee of a partnership.

Quote:

So if you qualify under the DICTIONARY
definition, you are one.

The officer, employee, and member "qualify under the DICTIONARY definition".

Since an officer or employee of a corporation, or a member or employee
of a partnership are already within the dictionary definition of
"person", there is no purpose for the statute.


Our expert has a dilemma:

EITHER:
A "Statutory Definition" is NOT a "Dictionary Definition";

OR:
There is NO PURPOSE for definition section 7343.


Our expert's statements, shown in context below, do not qualify for the
dignity of a specific answer.

At issue, is the starting point to be used in determining the meaning of
this statute; Determining the meaning of this statute means to determine
who chapter 75 applies to:

Sec. 7343. Definition of term "person"

-STATUTE-
The term "PERSON" as used in this chapter
includes an officer or employee of a corporation,
or a member or employee of a partnership,
who as such officer, employee, or member
is under a duty to perform the act in respect
of which the violation occurs.

Please note the UPPERCASE / lowercase distinction between "PERSON" as
defined in the Statutory definition of 7343 and "person" as defined by a
dictionary.

A PERSON defined by statute (Statutory "PERSON") is NOT the same as a
"person" defined by a dictionary (Dictionary "person").

The expert I am replying to does not agree. The expert I am replying to
has previously, succinctly, stated what he does believe:

7701(c) is real simple. Take whatever
is in the definition in Websters and
Blacks, and then add to that definition
whatever is listed after the word
include(s/ing). So if you qualify under
the DICTIONARY definition, you are one.
http://groups.google.com/group/misc.taxes/msg/213a668f86110bfd

As succinctly stated by our expert:

So if you qualify under the DICTIONARY
definition [of person], you are one.

My dictionary defines a person as "A human being or an organization with
legal rights and duties."

The following are persons with legal rights and duties:

An officer of a corporation;
An employee of a corporation;
A member of a partnership;
An employee of a partnership.

They "qualify under the DICTIONARY definition".

Since an officer or employee of a corporation, or a member or employee
of a partnership are already within the dictionary definition of
"person", there is no purpose for the statute.

Either:
One starts with the dictionary definition of "person" as asserted by our
expert, and there is no purpose for the statute.

Or:
One does not start with the dictionary definition of "person" as
asserted by our expert, and the statute performs another function.


What does our expert say in regard to the above logic?

Richard Macdonald wrote:
Per 26 USC 7701, is Nebraska a State?, Yes or No?
Why does our expert ask this question?

The above logic is understandable to anyone who reads it. Our expert
wants to post a citation of a judge decreeing that the above logic is
wrong.

Of course, if the reader realizes that Nebraska really is a state,
they will also realize the total futility and worthlessness of the above
assertions.

I think you, the silent reader, are smart enough to see that the above
logic is correct and that you are smart enough to see that any judge who
rules otherwise is as full of s**t as any judge who rules 2+2=5.

As I replied to our expert earlier:

If a judge decrees 2 + 2 = 5, and you are adding a $222 deposit to the
$222 already in the account, are you going to make this ledger entry:

$222 + $222 = $555

Now you go ahead and post your case where the judge decrees $222 + $222
= $555 and ignores the rules of statutory construction and the logic as
presented in my original post:

Which means that taxdefier believes that Nebraska is not a State.

You are correct (though you probably don't know it).

If Term A includes B, you can't add things like C, D, or F.

7701 says, if Term A includes B, then you don't exclude things
otherwise within the meaning of A. In other words, Term A = A + B.


This statement contains errors of omission:

"In other words, Term A = A + B."


The "A" to the left of the equal sign is *_THE_* STATUTORY DEFINITION
of "A". I will address that "A" as "Statutory A".

The "A" to the right of the equal sign is the "meaning of A". This
"meaning of A" IS the determining factor as to which things are not to
be excluded because they are "otherwise within the meaning of A". I
will call this "Meaning of A" just that.

Correcting our expert's errors of omission:

Term "Statutory A" = "Meaning of A" + B.

Notice:

Term "Statutory A" = "Meaning of A"


Huh? What happened to "+ B"?



Without knowledge of the "Meaning of A", you can NOT know what is
"otherwise within the meaning" of A.


Ah, the gist of the entire problem.

7701 says A = A.
If Congress does not specifically give a meaning to A, then the only
option is to use the ordinary meaning of everyday languange which can be
found in any dictionary.

The TaxDefying Idiot wants to make believe that A means something beyond
the limits of reason. He/she/it make believes that A does not = A. That
is just too stupid and needs no further explanation.

At issue is the use of the term 'includes/ing' in a "Statutory

In this case, the "Statutory Definition" is not the "Dictionary

There is a purpose for the statute.

True. The statory definitions only purpose is to expand the commonly
understood dictionary definition.

Take §4221, where it says in part:
"(d) Definitions.
For purposes of this section
(4) State or local government.
The term "State or local government" means any State, any political
subdivision thereof, or the District of Columbia. "


and in §4482 it says in part:
"(c) Other definitions and special rule.
For purposes of this subchapter-
(1) State.
The term "State" means a State and the District of Columbia. "



and in § 7701 it reads:
"Definitions.
(a) When used in this title,
(1) Person.
The term "person" shall be construed to mean and include an individual, a
trust, estate, partnership, association, company or corporation.
(14) Taxpayer.
The term "taxpayer" means any person subject to any internal revenue tax.

(9) United States.
The term "United States" when used in a geographical sense includes only the
States and the District of Columbia.
(10) State.
The term "State" shall be construed to include the District of Columbia,
where such construction is necessary to carry out provisions of this title.

(c) Includes and including.
The terms "includes" and "including" when used in a definition contained in
this title shall not be deemed to exclude other things otherwise within the
meaning of the term defined.
