It probably started when "The Revanooers" found out they could use the tax code against gangsters and whiskey runners better than regular police work. This overly bloated tax code contains so many regulations that it gives the IRS the ammo so that they can pick and choose who they want to slam. I really enjoy seeing the Obama crowd get back what has been going on for years. It does highlight something that a meaningful change to would be a good thing. It also exposes the unwritten perks of higher office to what it is. Double standard. The fair tax anyone! I think the tax code is completely political by an unguided design.

I balance my checkbook each month looking for "goofs." Sometimes those "goofs" show my account as having too much and sometimes as having too little. One would expect some "goofs" on tax returns to result in tax refunds. And yet, Democrat tax "goofs" <strong>always</strong> go one direction. Funny, that.
