Happy Tea Party Day: April 15, 2009

Remember this guy?

Richard Hatch, first season Survivor winner, tax evader. Been in jail for awhile.

However, these run free?

There are people much angrier than I am, and they even keep lists. And the real crooks get a pass ?

We all make mistakes, some learn from them…some get caught! Paying taxes is hard work, even for the IRS:

In an effort to show how complex the IRS code had become, Money magazine created a fictional American family and asked tax professionals to prepare an IRS tax return. Incredibly, every one of the tax professionals came up with a different tax total, and not one of the tax professionals calculated what Money believed to be the correct income tax. The Treasury Department’s own investigators declared that 47% of the advice that the IRS gives out to Americans calling its offices is erroneous.

For the rest of us, who play by the rules, we can certainly do something!

Find a Tea Party, sign up and get mad as hell.

These people did in Orlando, FL on March 21.
