What do I need it for, millions of dollars? It just sounds like problems with the IRS to me.

I used to do my own taxes. You know how you buy that gigantic sheet at Staples, add up the restaurants, clothes, and taxis and glue your receipts into the book month by month? The more money I made, the more complicated things got.

I don't want the IRS banging down my door.

But I benefit from the taxes I pay because I know how to access the benefits of the taxes.

I will use my expertise in technology to bring the IRS up to date.

I didn't pay my taxes for years.

My expertise was in public finance, particularly corporate taxation, since I had worked at the US Treasury.

You know, gentlemen, that I do not owe any personal income tax. But nevertheless, I send a small check, now and then, to the Internal Revenue Service out of the kindness of my heart.

I say scrap the IRS. Let's start all over again.
