The IRS furloughs came on the same day that the Senate again fell short of passing a funding resolution that would end the federal government shutdown.

          Everyones a millionaire these days! You’re not rich until you’re a billionaire! Even the McDonalds part time workers bring home a few hundred million each week.

          …what? I’m just talking like any normal human who totally knows the current economic climate would talk like! Thats why we gotta close down all these government handouts like snap and medicaid. It’s free money for people who already get free money, from their stock options, and taxfree offshore accounts. EVERYBODY has those, right???

          (In case you can’t tell I’m being highly sarcastic. Does anybody have any bread???)

      If you’re a billionaire, you weren’t going to anyway. This means you’ll be able to get away with more.

      If you’re not a billionaire, you still need to pay your taxes. This means if you’re owed a refund, you won’t get it.

      I try to avoid paying most of my taxes, but I recently learned that if my balance hits a certain threshold I could have my passport revoked :/
