National Sales Tax?
Bring it on
If you don't like the idea of abolishing the IRS consider this:
The code consists of 7.5 Million words.
That means that if you ignore, don't understand or mis interpert just one one hundred thousanth of the code, just 75 words, you can go to jail, loose your house or be utterly financially devastated.
The IRS rules are so complex they are arbitrarily applied. Your "degree of guilt" is up to the opinion of a beaurocrat and you will have hell to pay if you want to argue. They decide if you "did this on purpose" or were "just ignorant".
The IRS has already set itself up as a church, determining what can and can not be said in a religious meeting. And they will punish your religious organization by taking your money if they don't like what you say in your church.
It is only going to get worse. The IRS needs to be disbanded and sent packing. And the government needs to come up with a different mechanism for tax revenue.
I agree. I'm dealing with an audit right now. It is not a pleasurable experience.
I second that emotion!
folks this has been on the planning books since BEFORE Bush was elected in 2000. It is the priority after terrorism.
I agree - let's get this rolling! That way all the people that get illegal money (drug dealers, prostitutes, etc) will have to pay also. I'm tired of paying taxes for everyone. It's time they pay too!
