Sorry Taxpayers, but the US Treasury just had ANOTHER $20Billion in taxes filched from their coffers! Because, our own shitbag Congress has seemingly proven that the
Republican War on White Collar & Blue Collar America is very real.
The most prosperous period in US history (20s thru the 60s) was peppered with high income tax rates & a nearly usurious inheritance tax. Over the last few decades, the inheritance rate for estate transfers has been dropped time & time again, with the ceiling was raised to over $1Million, etc. It was no longer very painful, but to overtly cow-tow to the 1%ers & make it $0.00? free???
WTF, can't these Hilton-styled tarts afford their lavish, drug addled lifestyles without a Gov't handout???
BTW, anybody that can say "this money will create jobs & stimulate the economy" with a straight face, ought to be bitch-slapped, pilloried, & sterilized so they cannot reproduce. Because that's proven to be unmitigated bullshit too.
"We, the 535 halfwits that are supposed to represent & serve the entire US populace, will blatantly put the interests of 5000 families ahead of, well, EVERYBODY ELSE!"

IRS reports that TAX FRAUD is a $21 billion per year problem and NOBODY in Washington is doing jack-shit about it. WTF?

We all know a surprising number of folks that this has happened to in recent years. Don't ya think $21b would fund a crack team of investigators to put some of these identity thieves & illegal Mexican "tax filers" behind bars??? Apparently not, because the IDIOTS in Congress can't do that math, because the Republicans wanted to "show the IRS who's boss" after the scandal over investigating conservative PACs.
Time to get off your dead ass, Holder & help put a stop to this crap!
We agree with John Oliver, who said that instead of laying off IRS agents, Congress ought to be hiring more agents to help people get through this arcane process & ensure the financial health of our country. He postulated that the IRS is the "anus" of our country & everything would go to shit without it! (see article & video)

Funny that it takes a Brit to explain it to our citizens...

One of the 1st signs of spring in Detroit, is the opening of the old Model T plant on Piquette Ave.
April 1st, was the Ford Piquette Avenue Plant's 2015 Opening Day & we can't wait to get back there again! You won't find a better display of the various types & body styles of the Model T anywhere else!
"The Ford Piquette Avenue Plant is a non-profit corporation dedicated to the preservation of the birthplace of the Model T and the interpretation and celebration of Detroit's automotive heritage and spirit of innovation." True to their mission statement, these hard working volunteers are working to preserve, not restore or modify the building. It's a costly undertaking, but man... is that joint cool to visit!
Be sure to join up with one of the many tours that happen every day & you'll be amazed what you can learn about the early automobile manufacturing & engineering.
The museum is open Wednesday through Sunday, from 10:00 AM until 4:00 PM. ($10 for adults, $8 for seniors, $5 for students, 13 & under free).
