This film never explains why the Internal Revenue Code isn't the law, or Title 26 of the US code.
Furthermore, if there were no law, wouldn't the US government just make a law or pen one in?
The anti-tax people never explain these things.

To quote from the link above
NOTE: Of the 50 titles, only 23 have been enacted into positive (statutory) law. These titles are 1, 3, 4, 5, 9, 10, 11, 13, 14, 17, 18, 23, 28, 31, 32, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 44, 46, and 49. When a title of the Code was enacted into positive law, the text of the title became legal evidence of the law. Titles that have not been enacted into positive law are only prima facie evidence of the law. In that case, the Statutes at Large still govern.
