Taxes and the war!

If you didn’t know, IRS has a “Internal Revenue Manual”. It is a new hires guide to taxing! For example - You want to know what happens to tax collection if there is a “Nuclear war”? No taxes - eh? No, IRS (or the FEMA) has already figured it out.

The IRS has created a section in the Manual called “National Emergency Operations”. That section mandated that 30 days after a nuclear strike, the IRS would regroup and start, again, to collect taxes. It would do so even if it meant a total overhaul of the corporate hierarchy; the plan specifically noted that employees could be reassigned, without regard for rank or seniority, into any job essential to the collection of taxes. The good news? According to the New York Times, if you are delinquent in paying your taxes, the IRS’ new action plan assumed that yours would be more difficult to collect, so they’d ignore you in favor of current taxes.

Bummer!!! You can never escape one thing in this living world - Taxes!

But in this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes. - Benjamin Franklin.
