"along with postponing notices to people who failed to file tax returns,"I wonder if some of those people that are mentioned, in this quote above, are still missing or dead? Now would the IRS be looking for some dead people to pay their taxes too?
“We are very sensitive to political perceptions,” Mr. Everson said...isnt anyone else bothered by the fact that the collection of back taxes is being delayed untill after the elections to avoid negative publicity. negative publicity that might affect the outcome of an election...doesnt seem like this should be legal.
Actually, they probably don't pay taxes, and even more, get welfare checks from your (or your parents') taxes. If you are in the bottom 40% of income earners in the U.S. you pay nothing. Also, the government spends far more on the "ghettos" through different welfare services and added police protection (why do you think it takes so long for them to get there? Because they *aren't* busy?).If you actually look at the federal budget. 50% of it is spent on welfare, social security, medicare and medicaid, while less than 20% is spent on defense.
f**ktard. Why am I paying taxes then ? I bet I pay more taxes per month than the average digg 'tard like you makes in two years.I have no representation, I'm a "legal alien" and cannot vote. Why the f**k should I pay taxes ? I pay taxes because it's the f**king law, I live in a society that depends on those taxes to feed and cloth the less fortunate. I don't like it, but I pay it.
And yes I feel bad for the people of New Orleans.. I feel bad that they got hooked on a system of debt and ignorance provided through gov handouts. Then having to rely on FEMA to bail them out.I have a feeling the United States once was greater than it is now.
"Also, the government spends far more on the "ghettos" through different welfare services and added police protection"Actually it's not the "government" who pays for welfare. It's our taxes. Taxes paid by the people who get welfare too. So really they are getting their money and their older, working children's money back. No one is giving them a handout. They are getting their money back. Do you grasp that concept? The government takes our money and uses it to kill our sons and daughters in bulls**t wars. They don't use that money to shelter, feed, train and give medical care to OUR PEOPLE. They use it to help PEOPLE IN OTHER COUNTRIES.....well, help is subjective with this Iraq thing. But you get my point. We live in a country where children go to bed at night without enough food in their stomachs but the same people who don't care about them feel it's their patriotic duty to go half way around the world and "liberate" people who hate us. THAT MAKES NO SENSE AT ALL! How dare you put down American citizens for being poor. I'll bet you're one of those people who are against abortion but think it's okay to starve children and let them die from lack of medical care once they are born. It's fun to play goody two shoes when it doesn't require any real sacrifice or work.
