The IRS

For decades, if not longer, the IRS has needed to be replaced with something more efficient and the tax code has need scraping in favor of something more easily controlled.  There is every year about $290 billion  of revenue lost to tax loopholes.

There are 115,000 employees of the IRS with a budget of around $11 billion a year.

There have been many, many plans to help the taxpayer and to slim down the IRS, but so far all they can up with is a tax cut and more BS put into the code.  The American people need to stand for once and let their voice be heard.  Once it is heard they should make sure that the officials do as they are told or replace the SOBs with thoise who will do what they are told.

Professor’s Classroom

Since I was unavoidably detained elsewhere on Monday, the quiz will be today.

In 1791, Congress levied a tax on farmers of Pennsylvania, which they refuse to pay and in 1794 Pres. Washington sent in the militia to enforce the tax. What was this incident called and what was the tax levied on?

Not tough. I am being very kind to you this day. Write it down may never happen again. Just put the answer on mmy desk and exit quietly—I need a nap!

Why Does The Media Do That?

Always give Clinton the edge in any stuff of the day.  They basically, speaking of MSNBC, a free ride on a lie.  My question now is Does GE, owner of MSNBC, still contribute large sums to the DLC?  That could explain why Harolf Ford, Jr. lives on MSNBC and why Clinton gets a free ride.  You see both are members of the DLC.  That could explain the decidedly pro-Clinton stand by some of the reporters on MSNBC.

Just a thought!

Are They Truly One Of Us?

Candidates keep talking and we keep ignoring what they are saying. That they feel our pain or they are just one of us. Really? Does eating pizza or slamming back a shot and beer make someone part of the working class? How about going bowling? NO! It does not.

IMO, it is pandering and very condescending!

Will Americans buy this pandering crap? Most likely! I mean look at those that think Obama is a Muslim. Or the 28% that does not know that 4000+ Americans have died in Iraq. Or the 80% of Americans that think the economy is being handled poorly. But yet have confidence in McCain, who by any stretch of the imagination is just Bush Lite.

Sad that SAmericans are so uninformed. The problem is they seem to cherish their ignorance.
