Kill the IRS - Tell them to go audit Felix Unger!

Why do we put up with this crap? It is not their money and what is done with it is none of their goddamn business! 

Fire Obama's stupid school lunch-Nazi wife instead. That will save more than this asinine new Obama tax can steal. m/r



Kill the Obama Lunch Tax | National Review Online



EPTEMBER 12, 2014  By Deroy Murdock



The IRS targets free meals.



 As if its appetite were not insatiable enough already, Obama’s Internal Revenue Service is considering taxing the free lunch.
Some companies offer workers mid-day meals on the house. This encourages their employees to stay near work, dine with colleagues, exchange ideas, avoid nosy competitors, and then return to their duties. These voluntary arrangements are among the things that attract people to high-tech companies like Apple, Google, and PayPal.
According to the Wall Street Journal, “IRS auditors are now flagging the issue and demanding back taxes from companies amounting to 30 percent of the meals’ fair-market value.” So if an employee eats three $25 lunches per week at work, then after 50 weeks, the 30 percent Obama Lunch Tax would cost that worker or his company $1,125 in new taxes.
It would be bad enough to inflict the Obama Lunch Tax prospectively. But applying this as a back tax — likely with penalties and interest — is tyrannical and unconstitutional. America’s founding document forbids ex post facto laws. How can businesses operate in fear of new taxes that may erupt, and then be applied retroactively? What’s to stop the IRS in 2017 from declaring a photocopying tax and docking companies for employees’ personal use of Xerox machines . . . from 2009 through 2016?
Compliance costs would be another headache.
