    Timely, this…and this cartoon may have more to do with property tax than income tax,… I say let’s go to a flat tax without deductions and lay off most of the IRS. Of course this would also simplify tax preparation so much as to impact the whole tax prep industry.

    And when the savvy wolf gets together with other savvy wolves, they’ll start to influence voting in Washington – the lobo lobby.

    A flat tax would have to be on ALL income (not just “earned income”) and deductions eliminated (mortgages as an example phased out over say 10 years) the resulting rate would be significantly lower than today’s base rate. That said it will never happen because the mother’s milk of Congress is providing “tax incentives” in return for campaign “support” and if nothing else Congress always votes in their own interests.

    Or perhaps the government demanded that banks give out home loans to buyers that weren’t qualified and couldn’t pay back the money they borrowed. So the bank rightfully took possession of what it owned and the wolf bought it from the bank.

    Counsellor: Well, er, yes Mr. Anchovy, but you see our report here says that you are an extremely dull person. You see, our experts describe you as an appalling dull fellow, unimaginative, timid, lacking in initiative, spineless, easily dominated, no sense of humor, tedious company and irrepressively drab and awful. And whereas in most professions these would be considerable drawbacks, in chartered accountancy they are a positive boon.

    That’s okay.What the wolf does not know is the Pigs have a foundation problem, built over a toxic land fill, a gas pipeline is underneath them, and have a termites plus bedbugs infestation. They also plan to drill for natural gas across the street.

    Clue: the 47% don’t have any ‘deductions’; if they are able to find work at all, they are straight W2 filers.

    Try again.

    Someone (I forget exactly who, it’s been a while since I’ve read the quote) once said: “A flat tax guarantees three things:

    1. Those who are born in poverty stay in poverty.

    2. Those who are of merely Moderate means are eventually reduced to poverty.

    3. Those who are born wealthy never worry about having to pay taxes at all.”

    Or, if all papers are in order, forge some and steal it anyway..Strange all that teabag squaking. They sure were quiet when that church of the “Prince of Peace” was threatened and audited because of a sermon questioning war. My own church was infiltrated by both the FBI and CIA during Nixon and Reagan’s rule. (The CIA was so obvious, it was a joke at the time, the FBI was discovered afterwards.).I tried to get a c3 for research in Appropriate Technology (the non-exploitative things people can do for themselves or each other to get a higher standard of living without wrecking the planet). I kept getting letters from the IRS that they needed more information, went down to the Dallas office with the letter, only to be told, “everything in in order and you will soon be notified.” This kept up for several months until finally, before I could go down yet again, I got a letter saying, we have not heard from you, and so your case is denied and you have no right of appeal." Reagan abolished the Bureau of Appropriate Technology in 1982 and the corporate media has not mentioned it since. There is now the EERE, but it only covers large-scale uses and not the human-scaled ones. Other countries are making great progress in AT, but corporations have made the US their colony – and the Quizlings keep quiet when people are hurt.
