Civics question:

Do cabinet officials have the ability to establish or dis-establish tax laws?

I thought this was Congress’ business.

It all revolves around the rather thorny concepts of 'Diplomatic Immunity' and 'National Reciprocity'. The State Department is constantly worried that another country will start taxing our diplomats and possessions if we don't play 'nice'.

My proposal and solution is to bid the Unrealistic Nations a happy farewell and let some deserving country host them, like North Korea or Iran. It will make for easier weapons inspection, right?
