I see the IRS has extended the personal filing deadline to May 17.
Why? I could understand extending it last year, but not this year. What’s the point? Who is served? Is this just an admission by the IRS that most of the people who got a stimulus check are going to spend it to pay their taxes, so they need a little extra time to get the money into their accounts?
Just more fuckery. What really should have been done was a personal income tax holiday so nobody had to worry about paying the feds anything to begin with. But God forbid we should go a year or two without feeding the Doomsday Machine known as the federal government. To wit, I give you the following:
“Jim, it was huge! It had a maw–”
“A maw? Did you see its paw?”
