Have you ever owned a company or been in charge of payroll?

Have you ever received a check processed by someone such as ADP or PayChex and not the company you work for?

Just how does one tell ADP, “You must not send my withholding to the federal government.”
Technically, a company could terminate their Electronic Federal Tax System Payment Account with the IRS, which would leave only the option of paying manually and then they could simply not submit payment.

It wouldn’t obviate the requirement to pay, but it would stop the payment from being submitted automatically as part of overall payroll.

Right.

Now name a reputable company that would do so?

Would they require all employees to adhere to this? What about the employees who want their taxes withheld and sent?

Are we only talking about income taxes or are we including FICA as well?
 
Are you all under some delusion that the Federal Government needs your tax dollars to operate? If that were the case, there would not be a $37 Trillion debt.

I haven't but I'm not sure why that would apply as it is individual workers changing their deductions and not companies declining to send in their withholdings. Sober up.
 
I'm well out of my depth but what if the individual claimed umpteen deductions? Is that legal if they claim them but don't end up taking them when the tax return is filed?
And the answer is no. An individual would be subject to penalties for underpaying their income tax throughout the year and then paying their entire tax liability at the end of the year.

Which I do every year since I live in Portugal but still pay tax in the US. My penalties for underpaying are about $40-50 each year. I make more by keeping my money and then paying the penalties later. No big deal at all. So, your answer is wrong. It is TOTALLY legal to claim more deductions, or underpay your liability throughout the year. You just have to pay the penalties at the end. But you won't go to jail or be prosecuted by underpaying.

“… Anthony Salisbury, one of Stephen Miller’s top deputies, was observed discussing the plans via Signal in view of members of the public while traveling in Minnesota. The newspaper was then contacted by one member of the public who was troubled to see sensitive military plans discussed so openly.

In the messages, senior White House officials discussed the potential deployment of the Army’s 82nd Airborne Division, an elite unit that specializes in parachuting into hostile territory…

… Across several conversations, the Star Tribune reports, Salisbury spoke about a range of matters with Pete Hegseth adviser Patrick Weaver as well as other officials.

In one of the messages, Weaver revealed that Hegseth wanted Trump to explicitly instruct him to send soldiers to Portland.

“Between you and I, I think Pete just wants the top cover from the boss if anything goes sideways with the troops there,” Weaver reportedly said.

… Abigail Jackson, a spokesperson for the White House, told the Daily Beast … “Nothing in these private conversations, that are shamefully being reported on by morally bankrupt reporters, is new or classified information,” Jackson continued.

“Frankly, this story just shows the entire Trump Administration is working around the clock—and even through funerals—to make America safe again.”…”

I'm not saying that a company would or should do that, I'm just stating how it would be possible. Such actions against the federal government would obviously be pretty extreme and not something that I think any company would consider lightly and without consideration for the likely repercussions.

The company is the one with the (initial, at least) responsibility to transmit those payments to the federal government. So I would imagine that they'd not leave the decision to the individual employees. Where I imagine it would become an issues for individual employees would be in January-April of the next year when taxes were due and no payments had been made to the IRS on their behalf. That would likely be a nightmare scenario and would end up in the courts.

The account I mention is, IIRC, how a company makes all electronic payments to the IRS. So the company in question would not be able to submit any electronic payments to the IRS. Of course, they could choose to submit some payments manually, at their own discretion.

I guess if you look at it that way then its totally legal to speed as long as you are willing to pay the penalty.

Try again, as once more, you are wrong. Speeding results in a ticket and a traffic offense, plus points against your insurance. Done enough times yields more penalties, including criminal offenses and a possible loss of your license. Underpaying your taxes throughout the year, or declaring too many exemptions just means you pay a little more when filing. But it can be done EVERY year with nothing more done to you. I have done it at least 10 years in a row now, and have been audited once and told that what I am doing is just fine.

Okay. Next try to explain it to you. If you look at underpaying your taxes that way, you can park in a no parking zone over and over and as long as you pay the ticket you won't go to jail or anything. Does that seem legal to you?
