Tax Tyranny

THE IRS HAS A PROBLEM AND MR. RAYMOND IS IT

Mr. Raymond's got a lot of nerve. With tens of millions of law-abiding
Americans gladly giving nearly half of their annual income to the Internal
Revenue Service, he thinks the IRS has an obligation to answer a bunch of
asinine questions from people like him.

I know, I know, he's Robert Raymond, an independent candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives from Wisconsin in 2002, and now represents the People for Truth in Taxation, so he thinks this gives him the right to question the integrity and efficiency of the IRS.

Well, his questions are frivolous and annoying and they're making the
hard-working employees at the IRS angry, frustrated and depressed. And I
don't blame them.

For example, Mr. Raymond has the gall to ask the IRS what law makes
citizens liable for their individual income tax. That's embarrassing. They
don't need to know. All the IRS wants is for them to they pay their taxes
and stop complaining. Is that so hard?

Then Mr. Raymond fired four loaded and unnecessary questions at the IRS
people, and to show you how silly his questions were, let's take them one
at a time.
