IRS Nightmares Get Senate Hearing
"As of late we seem to be auditing only poor people," said IRS agent Jennifer Long. "The current IRS management does not believe anyone in this country can possibly live on less than $20,000 a year, insisting that anyone below that level must be cheating by understating their true income.
"Currently, in a typical case assigned for audit, there are no assets, no signs of wealth, no evidence that would support a suspicion of higher unreported income. So when the IRS does initiate an audit on these people, these individuals were already only one short step away from being on the street," Long continued.
"I can personally attest to the use of egregious tactics used by IRS revenue agents which are encouraged by members of the IRS management," Long said. "These tactics, which appear nowhere in the IRS manual, are used to extract unfairly assessed taxes from taxpayers, literally ruining families lives and businesses, all unnecessarily and sometimes illegally."
737 Billion Reasons to Abolish the IRS!
HOUSTON...We Have A Problem (with hidden taxes)
Robert the Bruce Father(Leper): I'm the one who's rotting but I think your face looks graver than mine. Son, we must have alliance with England to prevail here. You achieved that. You saved your family, increased your land. In time, you will have all the power in Scotland.
Robert the Bruce: Lands, titles, men, power, nothing.
Robert the Bruce Father(Leper): Nothing?
Robert the Bruce: I have nothing. Men fight for me, because if they do not, I throw them off my land and I starve their wives and their children. Those men who bled the ground red at Falkirk, they fought for William Wallace, and he fights for something that I've never had. And I took it from him when I betrayed him and I saw it in his face on the battlefield, and it's tearing me apart.
Robert the Bruce Father(Leper): Well, all men betray. All lose heart.
Robert the Bruce: I don't want to lose heart. I want to believe as he does. I will never be on the wrong side again.
BRAVEHEART - 1995
Abolishing the Income Tax will reduce products and services cost by 22% the cost of monitoring the income, of accountants, of reporting to the government, and the cost of preparing the income tax. It will free the people currently wasting their time and energy on this bureaucracy to apply their talents to the creative use and to produce income instead of counting it.
It will also close down the American KGB (oops wrong three letters) for good.
It will also greatly spur the economy by freeing all that money and energy to be used creatively, which would also mean more spending and more taxes paid.
The poor people would pay basically nothing (remember they currently pay at least 22% on every product they consume) and the rest will be paid by those who consume more. As it was pointed before that would include the criminals which would be the first. (Does it mean the current system protects criminals??? Ha? Ha? Congress for criminals?)
Bookmarked for future reference.
Big bump!
