Paperwork Had a Price.
The Stamp Act taxed printed materials, including legal documents and newspapers. Samuel Adams helped organize Boston’s opposition to Parliamentary taxation.

Revolutionary Spirit.
Meticulous Tax Work.
Sam Adams had Parliament. You have paperwork. Boston’s arguments about taxes have changed a little. The desire to keep more of what you earn hasn’t.
Libertarian in Outlook. Meticulous in Practice.
There’s a Reason
It’s Called
THE TAX CUTTERY®.
Taxation Is Theft.
Overpaying Adds Insult.
That’s Paul’s political philosophy. His professional approach is to know the law, document your position and help you claim what the law allows.
Paul Diaz is no fan of the Sixteenth Amendment. But disliking a law and understanding it are two different things. He built THE TAX CUTTERY® around the latter: Title 26—Title XXVI—the Internal Revenue Code, and the work of planning, preparing and defending a tax position.
If you’re going to part with hard-earned money, have someone in your corner who takes that seriously.

A City That Questioned the Tax Bill
From the Stamp Act to the Harbor.
A Harbor Full of Protest.
The Boston Tea Party challenged Parliament’s authority to tax the colonies. The argument reached far beyond the price of a cup of tea.
The Crown Doubled Down.
Parliament answered with the Coercive Acts, known in the colonies as the Intolerable Acts. The punishment helped drive resistance toward revolution.

Liberty, Taxes & the Practical Questions.
Is THE TAX CUTTERY a Libertarian Tax Practice?
Paul Diaz brings a libertarian perspective to taxes: respect for individual liberty, private property and the money you earn. The work is practical—lawful tax planning, accurate preparation and IRS representation.
Does Opposing the Income Tax Mean I Can Stop Filing?
No. A political objection does not remove a legal filing or payment obligation. Paul’s criticism of the Sixteenth Amendment is a personal position. THE TAX CUTTERY works within applicable tax law.
What Is Title 26, or Title XXVI?
Title 26 of the United States Code is the Internal Revenue Code. It contains federal tax rules. THE TAX CUTTERY focuses on understanding the rules, documenting the facts and using the provisions that apply to your circumstances.
Can I Work With THE TAX CUTTERY From Boston?
Yes. THE TAX CUTTERY serves Boston, Cambridge, Somerville and surrounding communities through a national virtual practice. Call (617) 812-1040 or begin the free online consultation. A local number does not mean a walk-in Boston office.
