Dear Mr Heinz your concern for Hispanics and government red tape just doesn't cut the mustard. I think instead of a concern for Hispanics you should voice a concern for all Americans and do something about the biggest piece of Red Tape ever created by a bunch of runaway politicians the US Tax Code.
Mr Heinz, did you know
As of 2001, the Internal Revenue Code contained 1,685,000 words—a 13% increase since 1995 and nearly 380 times the number of words in the U.S. Constitution.
As of 2001, IRS Regulations contained over 6,752,000 words—a 10% increase since 1995 and over 8-½ times the total number of words in the King James Bible.
There are 733 separate sections of the federal income tax code—a 612% increase over the tax code in 1954.
As of last year, the IRS produced 649 separate forms, schedules, and instructions with approximately 16,100 lines. IRS publications providing guidance to taxpayers alone totaled about 13,400 pages.
He should voice a concern for all Americans, good point .
Instead he is playing the typical class warfare card trying to divide the nation, but what can you expect from the democratic party, that is their only strategy, to split and break up our nation rather than build it up and support it.
No, Kerry would not know all of that because he is an empty suit who has done absolutely nothing since being elected Senator about 20 years ago. He is all talk and no action.
Would you by any chance have a reference for this information? I am thinking about writing a book, part of which would deal with the insanity of the tax code. I would like to include this information, especially if it is from a legitimate web site. Thanks!
