DAVID KRAYDEN: Bring on the cutbacks at the IRS-the symbol of government overreach and fiscal tyranny

2 weeks ago | humanevents.com | David Krayden

Nearly everybody hates the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). What kind of service are they rendering you when they skim your earnings? We can’t help but feel that this process is just a feverish shakedown or outright theft.
