At this point, one might say something negative about the blood-sucking IRS; but then again, one might be audited...

I think in audit of the IRS and the FED would turn up some interesting data.

If this same story was posted, except it was Russia or China, or even France, and the IRS was not called the “IRS”, I suspect we would be glad that we didn’t live in such a totalitarian hell hole.

But...we do.

One of the reasons I am moving to Kentucky is that the IRS schedules and percentages are across the board equal. That is, a person making $150k in New York city is taxed at basically the same rate as a person making $150k in rural Kentucky - except one is considered, locally, rich, while the other cannot afford an apartment.

The whole thing is a game. Like Monopoly. You play by the rules and can come up on top. But occasionally you land on Baltic Ave and the owner has a couple of houses on it.
