Is this video your production?
Very well done.
No, I just stumbled on it and liked it. Great movie, too.
LOL I didn’t see you weren’t posting to me/that Bachert was a FReeper!
Very well done, sir, if that is your video...
I have sad this before and I will say it again, the purpose of the IRS is not revenue generation, it is about the control and intimidation of citizens. Americans will never be free until the income tax is abolished.
The IRS impoverished Bud Abbott, hurt Lou Costello, and they had worked tirelessly to help the war efforts. That agency of intimidation needs to go!
bkmk
Didn’t know that about Bud and Lou.
Ironic that the IRS pursued an American hero for back taxes on his good works, but turns a blind eye on the Clinton’s who launder millions into their own pockets from a patently phony charitable foundation. Orwell perhaps described this best ...” All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others.”
But tens of millions of Americans adore the income tax, particularly those who pay little into it.
Yes, and ultra-racist Al Sharpton enjoys all the fruits of tax evasion.
Wonder how worried he is about January!
Was it the Kennedy or Eisenhower IRS that went after Sgt. York?
They also went after Robin Olds a famous fighter pilot who made ACE in three different wars WW2 Korea and Vietnam.
I don’t know why that bastard - and other like him (Jesse Jackson) - get away with this while good people are destroyed.
I had no idea about that case either.
Fight for your country and get run over in return.
You’re right, and their role in enforcing ObamaCare requirements are recent proof of that.
If the President intervenes, then cries of “unfair” follow.
If the President doesn't intervene, then the press reports it as though everything is being played out according to the law.
The IRS, much like the State Dept, has been politicized since early Roosevelt administration.
I suspect that the State Dept is one of the last vestiges of Communist group think left in the West.
George M Cohan was audited by the IRS in 1930. He was one of the first celebrities targeted by the IRS.
The IRS told that Cohan that he was not allowed to deduct many of his business and entertainment related expenses because he did not keep all of the necessary receipts. Mr. Cohan appealed this ruling and the courts actually sided with him, forcing the IRS has to accept estimates of his expenses. The Cohan Rule is now a law that allows taxpayers to deduct some of their business-related expenses even if the receipts have been lost or misplaced so long as they are reasonable and credible.
