I'm not the only taxpayer who has no idea what he's sending to the IRS. This year, only 28 percent of all Americans will prepare their own tax returns, according to a voice in my head that invents accurate-sounding statistics.
A Democratic congressman said that he worries that the IRS scandal might have a chilling effect on the IRA and that they might be afraid to audit people. So finally some good is coming out of all of this.
It's income tax time again, Americans: time to gather up those receipts, get out those tax forms, sharpen up that pencil, and stab yourself in the aorta
Most people don't realize the amount of tax forms the small business guy has to go through.
It's that time of year again, April 15, taxes. I know it's depressing, but just remember, you're paying for roads, bridges, hospitals, and an army to keep the nation free. Unfortunately that nation is Afghanistan.
I have paid taxes every year, a lot of taxes.
Last year I had difficulty with my income tax. I tried to take my analyst off as a business deduction. The Government said it was entertainment. We compromised finally and made it a religious contribution.
I do not do my own taxes. It's too many forms. "Here are my 70,000 forms. I have no idea."I would be in jail.

If I have an accountant that just reports I just invested $10 million in my business, and he doesn't exactly itemize where every cost goes, it gives a flag to the government. They want to make sure that the reason I'm not paying taxes is because I'm reinvesting in these businesses and not trying to hide stuff.
I pay hundreds of millions of dollars in taxes.
As far as my tax returns, you don't learn that much from tax returns.
I've never looked at a tax return without immediately losing consciousness.
Rappers shouldn't have to file taxes because they itemize everything they own in songs.
What we cannot do in a courtroom via criminal prosecutions to curtail the activities of some of these groups [anti-administration, dissident political groups], IRS could do by administrative action. Moreover, valuable intelligence-type information could be turned up by IRS as a result of their field audits.
Nixon started auditing late-night show hosts because they were making jokes about him. Then, every single one of their staff got tax audits.
Americans spend 3 billion hours per year filling out tax forms and keeping tax records.
Tax returns give you nothing. Tax returns give you no information.
Uh-huh. You know with that sinister tone you should look into working for the IRS. I’m sure they’re desperate for people who can cow others with a single growl. (Susan)
I get audited almost every year.And in a way, I should be complaining. I'm not even complaining. I don't mind it. It's almost become a way of life. I get audited by the IRS. But other people don't.
