Like Drango said, I'll believe when I see it. But in realizing the load of complying with tax laws as it is, the cost to the economy is about $108 Billion! Plus the inefficiency within the system!

I saw on a John Stossel special about getting rid of the department dealing with welfare (whatever that's called) and he said something to the effect that those who receive a check only get a few hundred dollars per month, but if they got rid of the department and the employees and the bureaucracy, the savings would allow the Federal government to just write a check to each individual for something like 20 to 40 thousand dollars per year and end their poverty.

The real economic cost to the US economy FRom the income tax and the IRS is more like $1.00 for every dollar raised!

James L. Payne calculate the cost at $.65 per dollar raised in 1995, and the total cost of the income tax tyranny has gone up a great deal since then.
