Let me just observe, after breaking the tax code in the hot sun all day, and then reading the "Regs", that I am so glad that I did not elect to take an LLM in Tax and specialize in the area. I am only blogging now, in fact, because I feel like I've hit a wall and need a break.
I listened yesterday morning to a former treasury official say that the United States deserves a tax code that looks as if it was created on purpose. Hear, hear. Can we get any volunteers to re-write the Code? And the Regs?

I'll do it!
10% on everything over $20,000. No nothing else. And anybody who puts out a budget calling for deficit spending loses a toe.

Speaking from experience, losing minor digits ain't doodly. Better make it something more substantial, like a certain other appendage that comes immediately to mind.

Can't do it, Mark. If we made cocksucking impossible in politics the government would grind to a halt.

Probably only one. George is fond of his toes and would learn pretty quickly.

Whoa! Go away for a couple of minutes (or hours, but really, who's counting?) and find a raging debate over amputation going on in my little tax post. Who says taxes don't cause impassioned feelings?
