With the IRS as our example, we can all save money, it seems, by resisting their audits and destroying records showing culpability, no?

Better not let the IRS know if your data was backed up daily to offsite storage by Symantec NetBackup, Symantec's enterprise backup software. The IRS examiners might find it hard to believe that just because you lost a hard drive, your data was permanently lost.

I don’t know why this is satire. I listened to today’s testimony. The prick actually said this. Suddenly Fedzilla is concerned about “wasting taxpayer money.” LMAO.

Read the IRS guidelines for emails: http://www.irs.gov/irm/part1/irm_01-015- 006.html#d0e279 It seems they didn't follow their own guidelines.

IRS spending report: Pricey suites, Michael Jordan paintings

6/4/13

A watchdog report released Tuesday includes potentially embarrassing examples of spending at conferences, including $17,000 paid to a keynote speaker whose specialty was painting unique pictures. He produced images of Michael Jordan, Bono, Albert Einstein and Abraham Lincoln at the IRS event.

Agency employees received hotel upgrades and a deputy commissioner spent five nights in a two-bedroom presidential suite at the Anaheim, Calif., Hilton.

And, of course, the IRS spent about $50,000 producing parodies of “Star Trek.”

In total, the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration found that the IRS spent about $49 million on conferences between 2010 and 2012.

Good memory. I forgot about all the freakin IRS waste of taxpayer’s money on stupid home made videos and luxury hotels. That makes this guy’s attitude even worse.

It’s our printed money to waste, I’m sure in 5 minutes I could come up with 100 things more ridiculous to waste money on, such as Michele’s vacations.
