They’re too busy counting their bonuses to have time to answer phone calls from tax payers that need assistance; they just hang up on them. Then when congress calls them on the carpet their response is that their budget isn’t adequate, they need more money.

Government bureaucracy – SOP.

Rand Paul – During the 2013 government shutdown, the IRS admirred that 90% of its own staff was “unessential.” 95% of the EPA was considered “unessential.”

Note: Now that they are back to work, the EPA it wants to use our taxpayers dollars to track how long hotel guests spend in the showers so they can start to “modify their behavior.” !!!

Here’s a solution to guests spending too much time in the shower at hotels.

At this point I think the govt would collect far more revenue in taxes if we adopted a flat sales tax with no exceptions or exemptions. All monies spent by individuals, charities, businesses, governments, drug dealers etc gets taxed at 15%-25%. Obviously the percentages could be lower if we ended wars of choice and free shit but that won’t happen until the collapse.

Sure IS, after spending a lifetime putting money away after taxes, I really need to be assfucked by being double taxed with a sales tax after my earning days are done. Still have about 10-15 years before retirement, so maybe we should hold off until then to truly get as much out of me ass possible. That would be great.

Noeffingway, there’s always winners and losers. Do you think they don’t have some extra fucking planned for us during this 4T? I’m sure our benevolent owners will give us long time savers a special break don’t you?

A few comments:

The government doesn’t need to collect more in taxes,

Many businesses, my small farm included, might be lucky to net 2 or 3 percent above expenses, so it immediately starts to get convoluted,

A tax rate that would be high enough to be effective would essentially dry up purchases from many businesses, maybe not a bad thing,

It wouldn’t stand a chance of passage anyway if it didn’t benefit “The Club”

but that all said, I get your point.

I do not understand the idea of bonuses in a government job, anyway. There is virtually no chance of being fired. Performance is barely monitored. It just makes no sense. Bureaucrats in private companies are not offered bonuses. In my experience, bonuses go to sales and service people with direct customer contact and who enhance revenue. There are also bonuses for developers who invent new products or techniques.

Bonuses are paid to non productive Government wage recipients for actually doing the job they are overpaid to do. The money to pay these bonuses comes from paying VA MD’s about half what they could make in private practice.
