    Eudaimonia;

    I note this outrage has gone largely unremarked in The Gulch. One might wonder...are we afraid to comment for fear the IRS will come knocking on our doors?

    These actions warrant jail time, serious jail time for all involved, from the lowest IRS supervisors who knew groups were being targeted to Douglas Shulman, who undoubtedly carried these orders from the White House and who will undoubtedly deny that fact and who should spend the rest of his life in prison for targeting and abusing law abiding tax payers at the behest of his political masters.

        K;

        Which do you suspect is wrong? Prior to mine there was one remark in nine hours, so that seems right. Do you doubt this matter was discussed during Douglas Shulman's 157 visits to the White House? Is that the premise you doubt?

          odd cycle. There have been many posts regarding this issue. This latest news is important, but you are not saying anything that dozens of gulchers have not said before. The lack of response at the GOP level has been telling. The income tax system is immoral from beginning to end. politicians lives are tied to keeping it alive. Rest assured gulchers put their money behind candidates interested in real reform. If there was going to be real reform..it would have already happened. so you have your answer. Prior to 10 years ago this would have meant jail. People are making plans-

            I haven't followed this closely enough to be knowledgeable, but my suspicion is the GOP responds timidly because they have done the same thing and may want to again. Someone else having done it, certainly does not make it at all okay.

    Most of the criticisms President Obama sound like people who just disagree with him or having something to gain from supporting his opponents. The results are often a comical attempt by people who claim to be Rand supporters, who should eschew politics, pathetically trying to shoehorn that latest news into politics.

    The IRS stuff, however, rings true to me. I can see the motivation for President Obama doing this, and we've seen actual evidence of the IRS acting politically. Some of it can be explained away by people who are against taxes being more inclined possibly to evade them, but to me this smells really bad. I highly suspect high-ranking Administration people were playing politics with the IRS-- very bad.

    I guess I was part of the 90%. I am not afraid. IRS, NSA, etc. I oppose you. I am still working on little surprises for forcible breaking of the musical Galtish oath lock to my atomic force microscopy lab.
