Pathless
Fiercely Interdependent
Howdy.
Once again, my enjoyment of the New Year and Spring is being slightly soured by the beauracratic paperwork nightmare of tax time. Bleeeech.
I've heard whispers over the past year about how the IRS and the federal income tax are unconstitutional. And this bit by George Carlin (parental advisory--explicit lyrics
) reinforces my urge to totally blow off filing a return this year. Do you think THEY will come get me? (Anyone on this forum work for the IRS? If so, you don't see me or hear me, okay? )
Look, I'm po'. I don't even owe any extra taxes. I'd get one of those fantabulous money-back return checks. So part of me wants that check, but mostly I don't wanna bother. I don't wanna spend two hours out of my life this year doing some corporation's bidding so that this system of corruption, domination, and money-laundering for war, war, war can be perpetuated. I've got better things to do, like take a shower, cook some good food, and go for a long walk.
Anyone know anything about this? Can you point me in any direction that will help me educate myself about this weird, shadowy, shady entity called the Internal Revenue Service? Service???!! Doesn't that blow you away? Where do they get off calling themselves a service? Really? Do you feel served by the IRS? And I ain't talkin' in a "you got served" sort of way. I mean I feel that. I feel like they own me for a short period every spring. If I'm not actively doing their BS bidding, it's somewhere in the back of my mind, festering. Which maybe points to the fact that I should just do it, get it over with, and collect my $200 for passing Go.
Heck, look how much time I took out of my day just to post this!
'Kay. End of rant.
For now.
