Mr. Ed Kelley was so inspired by his recent encounter with the IRS that he thinks our entire government model should be revised by its example... though i see his point, i just cannot get the words "big brother" out of my head...

Ok, it is tough to follow my last cheerful post with something much more ominous... it appears that the IRS is launching a study on how to better bend us to its mighty will... introducing the debut of the IRS compliance study... god help us all:

"compliance study for individual taxpayers that would provide updated and more accurate audit selection tools and support efforts to reduce the nation's $300 billion-plus tax gap."
