My delightful expert comments:
< Nope. You're not taxed on stuff you grow or make for your own use, or for
services you (or your machines) perform for your own benefit. You may be
thinking of the 1930's case where the court said that the U.S. government
could regulate the amount of wheat a farmer grows for his own use. >
That'd be it. I wonder if that case could constitute a kind of precedent?
