I just spoke to an I.R.S. customer service agent. I've spoken to these folks on several occasions over the past few years, and I have always found them to be quite jovial. I wanted to discuss some things before mailing in my return. When I told the representative how much I owed, he responded with, "Yikes! You must be self-employed." Yikes indeed. After answering my questions, he told me to call back in a month or so to make some arrangements. In closing, he said, "Soon you'll be well on your way down the road of tax compliance."
I should have been a taxman.
Tell Dubya that it's my fault if he can't pay for his missile shield this year.
