This is a subject that Dirty Don Schultz, USCF President, should be addressing, instead of fighting his endless wars against those who have made his enemies list.

It is obviously ridiculous to have an international arrest warrant out against Fischer merely for playing a few games of chess.
Spassky, who also played for money in his match with Fischer, has been sitting comfortably in his home in France and has never had any trouble because of this.
Regarding the claim that Fischer owes taxes from his winnings, even US diplomats abroad do not pay US income taxes, if they stay out of the US for long enough.
