Norman ConquestIRS
I read this + it's supposed to be true, who knows, but as they say, if it ain't, it ought to be.
When asked to name his dependents on his tax return, the taxpayer wrote, "12.1 million illegal immigrants,1.1 million crackheads, 4.4 million unemployed deadbeats, 80,000 criminals in over 85 prisons, at least 450 idiots in congress and numerous others who call themselves politicians but are in, in fact, nothing of the sort."
When the IRS told him that his response was unacceptable, he wrote back.
I thought it was quite detailed. Who did I leave out?"

Norman ConquestTrue. I remember when Clinton was going to "shut down" the government; all except essential employees, + said to my self, did he even hear himself?

Nothing else, please.

Norman ConquestWell, we get that too. My complaint from a few years ago was when I took my wife to the ER + she needed ambulance service to the next town for an appendectomy at the cost of the ride at $1K for a 10-minute drive. My objection was that I am already paying for EMS/EMT service on my property tax annual bill. I don't like being charged twice for the same thing.
