The IRS is the best thing to ever happen to America

The Internal Revenue Service might behave like a legal extortion racket sometimes, but without it, the United States would slip quickly into Third World status and utter chaos and street violence would be the order of the day. Now how can that be, you ask? Well, first, the IRS provides a steady stream of income for all the wonderful benefits most Americans enjoy -- schools, roads, social programs, Medicare, welfare for those unable to fend for themselves, small-business loans, student grants, and the list just goes on and on. Plus, the IRS has teeth in its regulations which enable it to defy even the Constitution in going after as much tax money as it can get. It keeps many wealthy people in line. Most other countries have a simple tax system -- soldiers come up to your house and simply take whatever they want. The IRS doesn't do that. The IRS might get you, but it is done slowly, in a way to give you a fighting chance to comply or to challenge their rationale for taxing you in such a manner. Yes, the IRS looks mean and nasty, but it is the greatest friend most Americans will ever have. Inflation? The IRS stablizes that tendency by removing a certain amount of money fron circulation and calming ecenomic waters. Stability? Without the IRS, we would have 600 percent inflation each year, an affliction that hits nations like Argentina more often than is necessary. Hooray for the IRS!
