He’s one of the few people in America who can say—credibly—that he hasn’t paid income tax in over 10 years and hasn’t held a driver’s license in nearly 20… with zero legal consequences. Not because he’s hiding, but because he understands the law better than the institutions enforcing it.Dan has beaten government agencies at their own game—from the IRS to the FEC—forcing them to back down when they overstep. He’s also taken on major corporations and won. His work isn’t theory. It’s real-world rebellion backed by deep knowledge of how financial, legal, and political systems actually function—not how we’re told they function.What we Discussed: 0:00 Intro and what happened my back 02:24 How he realised the Goverment tax was fraud 04:40 Fighting Traffic Tickets 07:00 The System is designed to trick you of your rights 10:00 De-Registering Your Car 12:45 Getting a Fake Drivers Lisence 14:35 Taking the Car because of No Insurance 16:42 Your name is all Caps 18:50 Locked out of his Crypto account without a Driving Lisence 21:45 Trumps Tariffs War 29:30 Insurance is a Gamble and Scam 34:50 Insure Yourself to protect yourself 36:00 Health Insurance was more expensive for the person covered 37:45 Insurance company refusing to pay 38:35 A Crypto Currency to Fix the Corrupt money system 40:45 Monero is posing a theat to the system 42:40 Bitcoin is Inflationary 44:30 Finding better ways to get Crytpo Adoption 46:35 Merc froze my Crypto account 48:05 Anti Money laundering is about taxes 52:30 Sending a Tax form to the IRS can be used against you 55:25 The IRS would need to explain the tax code 58:45 Not charging Sales Tax 1:04:30 Once you pay tax the government does what they want 1:06:55 You can get your taxes back within 1 year.
