The corruption at the heart of our tax collecting system just keeps boiling over. The story also illustrates the unholy alliance between the legal "profession" and the government whenever it comes to the "income" tax.

The new story does not address the fact that the IRS lawyers are not even lawyers. They posed as lawyers. The IRS would not comment on how the two managed to be paid as attorneys for the IRS. I would assume a bunch of judges might be a bit pissed?
I also stated when I first heard the ruling that the IRS will never pay a dime. Funny caveat though......Everyone is in an uproar over "fraud" committed by the IRS? Hello? Where has everyone been?
I wonder if they will ever act on the IRS practice of recording conversations between attorney/client when IRS reps leave a conference room, hoping to get some juicy chat?
In all fairness to the IRS, they do have a few good souls. There is a lady down in Atlanta that is the only person I will speak with. She has resolved several costly issues for me that were making the desk to desk shuffle tour.(keeps piling penalties and interest). I have her direct number and she has acted professionally, compassionately, and sees each issue all the way to resolution. Sure I may not love writing a check, but it's not as bad when the person you are dealing with is honest, competent, and thorough.

Worth repeating. STOP participating in the fraud...the Federal version of the mafia.
