    Income Tax??
    In the never ending debate about Income Tax I have a question.

    If there are over 22 thousand pages of Tax Code and if a Direct Tax in unconstitutional, how can anyone get the right answer?

    I seriously doubt if even the judges and the IRS themselves fully understand the true meaning of these vague and misleading codes .

    How does not obtain the correct answer in regards to Tax?

    Who you be the right person to contact?

    Seriously, just think how the economy would drop if we simplified the tax code. All those lawyers, CPAs and tax preparers out of work.

    I have heard all the arguments for simplified taxes.

    If the American people would demand a less intrusive government, there would not be a need for the money that our high tax rates generate nor would there be a need for the social engineering that the current tax system supports.

    There! A simple answer! Note that I did not say it was a good answer! :-)
