As this article points out, the IRS is not the only oppressive government agency involved in threatening freedom of speech and freedom of association. The EPA has been involved, along with the ATF, OSHA and the Labor Dept. Every one of the heads of these offending agencies ought to answer these allegations under oath in congressional hearings. They should be tried, convicted and jailed.
If getting a date wrong in his FBI testimony landed Scooter Libby in prison for 2 1/2 years, this flagrant breaking of the law should get them at least 5-10 years.
That might slow the intimidation of Big Government in the lives of its citizens.
All of those agencies, without due process, can seize assets and your freedom, until you can lawyer your way out of it. And they have for all practical purposes, infinite resources to fight against you.
This should not be. This cannot stand.
