The Tax Man Cometh

This month the IRS is beginning a new round of random audits which they will perform with a fine tooth comb because they think they can learn enough to refine tax laws and requirements that will enable them to snag some money currently getting away from them. This will be a veritable nightmare for the unlucky random filers, even if they happen to have been filing legitimately and honestly.

Itstrikes me as an interesting idea, since at the same time, Bush America is determined to drastically reduce tax liability for the very wealthy and corporate citizens. Of course that money has to be made up somewhere, and you know cutting down on war spending isn't going to be the place. In fact, that could well be the reason the IRS is looking for money from you poor slobs trying to keep running that small business of yours that Bush talks so dreamily about being the core of society. I hope if you get audited, you have kept every scrap of paper and dotted every i.


....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
