In the House of Representatives, 421 people owe a total $6,524,892. In the Senate, 217 owe $2,774,836. In the IRS’ parent department, Treasury, 1,204 owe $7,670,814. At the Labor Department, where Secretary Hilda Solis’ husband had some back-tax problems before her confirmation, 463 owe $7,481,463. Eighty-one workers for the Federal Reserve System’s board of governors owe $1,076,733.

Over at the Justice Department, which is so busy enforcing other laws and suing Arizona, 1,971 employees still owe $14,350,152 in overdue taxes.

IMO, this is a national security issue. Part of a routine background check for those departments should include their tax payer compliance. Certainly it shouldn't be acceptable for anyone with any sort of security clearance to have unpaid taxes, whether federal, state or local.

Alternatively, they can scrap the tax code and give the rest of us peons tax amnesty too until they get the flat tax in place.

Since we The People pay their salaries through our own taxes, doesn't that make us their employer? If so, I say we start by garnishing their wages.
