Best Answer

There are two answers.

1.

According to the I.R.S., and tax court judges, who are paid by the US government, no one is exempt.

2.

According to US Income tax law, however, everyone is exempt, except those who have

"Foreign earned income".

A.

"Exempt income" - Legally defined in 26 CFR 1.861-8T(d)(2)(ii).

B.

"Income that is not considered tax exempt" follows it in Sec. 1.861-8T(d)(2)(iii) and only includes "Foreign earned income". (Note: Income Not Exempt means taxable)

So according to "code", most people are exempt from paying income taxes, unless they earn "Foreign earned income."

Notice, According to Uncle Sam at Google, Section 861-8T is the result (and it comes from GPO, Electronic Code of Federal Regulations ... i.e. it's the law).

3. Internal government entities are exempt from income taxes.
