Pay Your Taxes

Pay Your Taxes
Another Hypocrisy from Washington

If you are among the middle class American population, this is to remind you to “remember” to pay your taxes. Struggling or not, recent weeks have taught us that unless you are among the Washington Elite, forgetting is not an option.

This double standard has spiraled way out of control. I have personally witnessed fellow employees literally handcuffed and toted away from their job by the IRS. Single, caucasian mothers working to keep their kids in school, food on the table….you get the picture. Often times we have watched as families were removed from their home, their one and only home mind you, not because they forgot but because they couldn’t afford to pay their taxes. American citizens have lost their one and only vehicle, their one and only savings account, swiftly taken out from under them with absolutely no excuses allowed.

Now, Tom and Tim and countless others got caught not paying their taxes and what did they get? No cabinet appointment.?? Oh, please! It happens every year, and every year “they will now be held accountable” blah, blah, blah.

Its tragic, the crude and deceitful tactics these IRS agents use to “remind” middle class America to pay their taxes. All authorized by these same people who “forgot”! Maybe if these same elite members of the Senate and Congress really were held with the same accountability, threatened and coerced as we are, the federal deficit would be greatly reduced. Possibly, if they had to pay all of their taxes and on time, the budget wouldn’t be in such horrific condition.

We pay again America. Maybe we should all just to “forget” to pay our taxes in 2009. Do you think Washington would wake up then? You can be certain it would not be they that suffer.
