Peter Schiff isn't shy when it comes to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44844540/peter-schiff-china-is-selling-dollars-and-treasuries-to-buy-euros-and-bunds-crashing-the-markets-not-part-of-a-genius-master-plan">challenging conventional wisdom</a> about taxes—or anything else, really.&nbsp;
On Tuesday, the prominent economist <a href="https://x.com/PeterSchiff/status/1912266399398887500">posted</a> on X, quoting his late father Irwin Schiff: &#8220;My father Irwin Schiff always called April 15th the real April Fool&#8217;s Day, as that was the day the IRS fooled millions of Americans into &#8216;voluntarily&#8217; filing income tax returns (what he called confessions) even though no law required anyone to file those returns or pay the tax.&#8221;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Irwin Schiff's Radical Stance on Taxes</h2>
Irwin Schiff, who died in 2015 at age 87 while serving a 14-year prison sentence for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43850974/its-an-american-duty-to-not-pay-our-taxes-robert-kiyosaki-proudly-says-hes-1-2-billion-in-debt-because-it-legally-leaves-him-tax-free">tax evasion</a>, was one of the most vocal critics of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44838380/if-you-paid-1-in-federal-income-taxes-you-paid-more-than-tesla-or-amazon-says-bernie-sanders-as-he-takes-on-billionaires-for-tax-inequities">federal income tax</a> in modern American history.&nbsp;
He claimed the tax was unconstitutional and built a national following by teaching others how to avoid it. His books, including &#8220;How Anyone Can Stop Paying Income Taxes&#8221; and &#8220;The Federal Mafia,&#8221; sold more than 250,000 copies, according to <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2015/10/20/business/yourtaxes/irwin-schiff-fervent-opponent-of-federal-income-taxes-dies-at-87.html">The New York Times</a>, which wrote a sprawling obituary for him.
His argument rested on two key points: First, that the Constitution limited Congress from imposing direct taxes without apportionment, and that the 16th Amendment did not change that. Second, he argued that filling out a tax return violated the Fifth Amendment because any information provided could be used against the filer.
Trending: BlackRock is calling 2025 the year of alternative assets. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">One firm from NYC has quietly built a group of 60,000+ investors who have all joined in on an alt asset class previously exclusive to billionaires like Bezos and Gates.</a>
Despite decades of court rulings dismissing these claims, Schiff stuck to his views. He told a federal judge in 1980, &#8220;You, sir, would be the lawbreaker, not I,&#8221; after being sentenced to six months in prison for failing to file returns in 1974 and 1975. He later served additional sentences for promoting tax evasion schemes that the federal government said resulted in $56 million in lost revenue.

While Peter Schiff has praised his father&#8217;s intellectual case against the income tax, he's being transparent in that he doesn't follow his father's example. When asked if he files his taxes, Peter responded under his X post: &#8220;Yes, I don&#8217;t want to go to jail for not filing like my father did, so I &#8216;volunteer.'&#8221;
See Also: Hasbro, MGM, and Skechers trust this AI marketing firm — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/rad-intel">invest pre-IPO from $0.60 per share now</a>.
Peter has repeatedly said that the IRS system relies on fear and misdirection. When someone on X pointed to court rulings, like Brushaber v. Union Pacific Railroad Co., Schiff argued that the income tax is technically voluntary, but practically enforced through threats of punishment.
&#8220;The problem is the government goes after you if you don&#8217;t volunteer and the &#8216;courts&#8217; back them up,&#8221; he posted. He also cited 26 U.S. Code 6012(a), claiming his father had legal backing for the idea that &#8220;shall&#8221; in tax law actually means &#8220;may.&#8221;
Whether people see April 15 as a civic duty or a government overreach, the debate sparked by the Schiffs continues to stir strong opinions.

'The Real April Fool's Day Is April 15th,' Says Peter Schiff, Quoting His Tax-Resisting Father On How The IRS Duped America

As market volatility grew and the Nasdaq 100 approached bear-market status, an intriguing pattern emerged: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/financial-advisors/25/04/44779772/gen-z-and-crypto-how-younger-generations-are-weighing-risk-in-investing">investors bet bigger on risk</a>. 
Outstanding shares in the top 50 leveraged ETFs have risen 20% since April 2, according to Citi Global Markets, cited by Bloomberg. 
The day marked President Donald Trump&#8216;s so-called &#8220;Liberation Day&#8221; declaration, which sparked tariff tensions. Even with the uncertainty, retail traders seem unfazed, piling into the high-adrenaline universe of leveraged exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in a daring attempt to reap outsized returns.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">High Risk, Higher Conviction</h2>
Leveraged ETFs, which derive their returns through derivatives to double, triple, or quadruple an underlying index or asset daily, are experiencing an explosion of popularity. While warning of wipeouts should the market move against the trades, aggressive investors have been attracted to them as the ultimate dip-buying tools.
Nowhere is that sense of optimism stronger than in the following three ETFs that have become default vehicles for the aggressive:
ProShares UltraPro QQQ (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TQQQ#NASDAQ">TQQQ</a>)
<ul>
<li>Leverage: 3x Long Nasdaq-100</li>
<li>The poster child of leveraged dip-buying, TQQQ has attracted around <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/broad-u-s-equity-etfs/25/04/44824856/retail-traders-rush-into-leveraged-tech-etfs-betting-on-nasdaq-rebound-after-sharp-drop">$7.1 billion in net inflows since mid-February</a>, $3.1 billion of which came in following the tariff announcements in early April. Aimed to triple the daily return of the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100, TQQQ dropped more than 50% earlier this year but has since recovered almost 30% from its April 9 low.</li>
<li>Despite a 45% decline from its February high, the rampant buying indicates increased risk appetite as investors hope for another tech-led recovery.</li>
</ul>
Direxion Daily Semiconductor Bull 3x Shares (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOXL#NYSE">SOXL</a>)
<ul>
<li>Leverage: 3x Long Semiconductor Index</li>
<li>While the semiconductor industry rides another bumpy cycle, investors are piling into SOXL in hopes that AI demand and supply chain normalization will reignite chip stocks. The ETF brought in $1.8 billion last week alone, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-04-17/day-traders-refuse-to-give-up-favorite-obsession-leveraged-funds?sref=TBDibEcD">per </a>Bloomberg.</li>
<li>SOXL is designed to provide three times the daily performance of the PHLX Semiconductor Index. Although this leverage amplifies losses as well as gains, it has not dissuaded investors looking for the next big move higher in Nvidia (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), AMD (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>), and other semiconductor players.</li>
</ul>
ProShares UltraPro S&amp;P 500 (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UPRO#NYSE">UPRO</a>)
<ul>
<li>Leverage: 3x Long S&amp;P 500</li>
<li>While the Nasdaq gets all the headlines, UPRO provides three times exposure to the broad S&amp;P 500—a good bet for those playing a broad-based rebound. The ETF took in $633 million last week, Bloomberg reported.</li>
<li>Even as the wider S&amp;P slid under the weight of tariffs, investors just kept coming in, indicating that most view the drawdown as a buying opportunity, not as a reason to run.</li>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Volatility As A Feature, Not A Bug</h2>
Despite warnings from figures like hedge fund titan Bill Ackman, who recently decried leveraged funds for &#8220;driving dramatic market moves,&#8221; their popularity remains undiminished. Citi analysts note that while retail volumes broadly dipped, leveraged ETFs were an exception, with six making the top 25 most-traded list on Interactive Brokers.
Demand for leveraged ETFs reflects a change in retail investing psychology: volatility is not something to hedge but profit from.
The increased leveraged ETF inflows during a market retreat say it all. Retail traders, some who got their start during the meme stock boom and the 2022 bear market, are growing more comfortable with high-conviction, high-risk bets.
Though the ride is frightening; TQQQ declined 80% in the previous bear cycle before its record-breaking rally; the reward potential brings traders back for more.
