You have no argument. You just keep saying that you are right. As proof, you claim that I am wrong and must work for the people you do not like.No argument.Done.

1 - I didn't say government needs more employee's (misplaced apostrophe, BTW)2 - You still have no argument. (i.e.: no support for your statement) You just reiterate your talking point.So - still done. If you have nothing else don't bother replying.

The feds have authorized hiring collection agencies to go after delinquent accounts. This has been done a couple of times before according to Slate and it has lost money for the feds. The IRS is short handed and the feds are so hostile to the idea of hiring enough people to actually do the work that they will approve of losing money in order to outsource IRS duties. Fully staffing the IRS would actually pay for itself, and the IRS would be more likely to pursue larger debts (owed by people or corporations with deep pockets who can afford to resist the collection agencies), more likely to accept reduced payments or simply write off debts from those who cannot afford to pay the full debt. If you don't want to pay taxes, why don't you take your imaginary business and move to Galt's Gulch?http://www.slate.com/articl...

If you think you hate it, try living on a steady diet of it for 25 years as a trade press writer.

Stinky Zinke is at the top of my list for appointees in this administration who will be indicted before the next election. He is up to no good, and I mean in a grafty illegal way, and it's only a matter of time before he gets caught. He is too stupid to pull it off and get away scot free.

He won't remember any of it. After all, his doc said that Donnie "resets" every morning.

It's not like a radioactive cloud spewed tens of thousands of feet into the air may fall on the suburbs or even those rural enclaves they think are secure. So instead of dying within a few days, you may die off slowly, a few percent a year, from the effects of radiation. Which will be on everything you touch, grow, breath, and eat after you emerge from your shelter. Because if a bomb hits NYC, you can count on the US retaliating, in which case Russia will retaliate too. A thousand or so bombs going off in the US will put us back to the civilization we had in the 1700s, with the added problem of a toxic environment.
