Incredible. Just fucking incredible.

Here.  This is the worst:  The Internal Revenue Service says it will need an battalion of 1,054 new auditors and staffers and new facilities at a cost to taxpayers of more than $359 million in fiscal 2012 just to watch over the initial implementation of President Obama's healthcare reforms. Among the new corps will be 81 workers assigned to make sure tanning salons pay a new 10 percent excise tax. Their cost: $11.5 million.

So far, obama has suggested cuts in programs he has no intention of cutting.  He believes that tax cuts = money deprived from the government machination.  He hasn't seen an unprinted dollar that he can't spend.  Enough.  And Republicans need to get it right, otherwise they need to leave.

  1. humph, it's going to cost us more to tax tanning beds than what we would receive for taxing them.
