“The hardest thing in the world to understand is the income tax.”

Considering the source, a little comic relief is almost as good as a vacation. Also considering that socialism is a most mentally diseased religion that bankrupts the majority of that which it associates with; And, Marx's (in harmony thereto) 2nd plank was to help enslave, tear down, and destroy the individual so that he may be subdued, the income tax is really easy to understand.

I suspect that he is referring to the tax code.

I have no trouble understanding the income tax. It goes to pay the interest on loans made out of thin air to the government by the central bankers. It's a criminal Ponzi scheme.

Coming from Einstein, it says a lot. There are many withholding's if one has ever done payroll BK. Let alone the corporate side. forcing Independents to become "withholding agents" on the Fed and States behalf has been the curve of tyranny's march nationwide for the past 45 years. The market crash of 2008 was aimed at said Independents to brake the backbone of this nation. The building industry. 

Really, Albert? Not such a genius after all, then. How do you expect to pay for all those armed forces then?

Einstein being a pacifist, he probably would agree with me.
