Yeah, That Could Happen....

It looks like Neal Boortz must've been smoking something strange during his recent vacation. Apparently, he actually believes that Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert will push for elimination of the IRS.

Maybe he will; maybe he won't, but it's guaranteed that he won't push hard enough and the fix is already in. There's no intention of eliminating it.

Even if he were serious about this (yeah, right), there's no way in hell it'd ever get passed. There are just too many entrenched bureaucrats and too many people (welfare, race/class warlords, tax lawyers & accountants) with a vested interest in the status quo to ever let this happen.

But.... they could always say, "Well, we tried. We're still your friend, right?".

Worse yet: Who's to say that they won't just go ahead and implement the new without ever getting rid of the old? Then we'd be stuck with both an Income Tax AND an NST/VAT.

Remember: if it seems too good to be true, you're probably right.
