Comments on: Hey Congress, Why Don’t You…? Explain Our Taxes http://www.taxgirl.com/hey-congress-why-dont-you-explain-our-taxes/ Paying taxes is painful... but reading about them shouldn't be.

Can you think of another entity with so much money and power? The only way to reduce the waste, fraud, and abuse is to limit the money they receive and what they can do with it. There are no other solutions and never will be. If you like all the social programs and the feel good legislation, you have to accept the waste, fraud, and abuse, and you especially have to accept the continued loss of freedoms through regulation.

It would still leave out the huge deficits we run. Great idea though to have to explain where the money is going.
