Owe The IRS? Bill Would Suspend Passport Rights For Delinquent Taxpayers « CBS Los Angeles

Quote:
LOS ANGELES (CBS) — A bill authored by a Southland lawmaker that could potentially allow the federal government to prevent any Americans who owe back taxes from traveling outside the U.S. is one step closer to becoming law.

All you needed to leave the GDR was to pay back taxes?

The wife is a overzealous tax attorney, slim chance of me cheating on my corporate or personal tax returns I know, I've tried. Now I will admit that the State Department as stated that if I lose or misplace another passport I might be grounded for life. Other than that, I'm not to concerned.

PS - if the law is passed tax scoffs will join child support defaulters,

Default this is what tyranny looks like.......

And now you know just a taste of what will happen for those who do not comply with the Obamacare mandate. The IRS is the largest branch of Obama's "civilian national security force".


Obama Civilian Security - YouTube

How many members of Congress and staffers will be prohibited from leaving the US under this law? Or, are they going to exempt themselved from this law too?

Do you really think Obama would allow the IRS to stop his top cheerleader Warren Buffet from traveling even though Berkshire Hathaway owes reportedly $1 Billion in backtaxes?

Nothing to look at here folks, move along.

The tax code is 72,000 pages long and often times the IRS doesn't even understand what it is tasked with enforcing.
I'm not defending the elitists who duck their obligation while advocating Joe Six pack pay his, but how many are in violation without even realizing it, or are persecuted due to incompetence?
Sorry no travel for you citizen!

This is a major reason I don't get people wanting the govt running things. They do a poor job and you cannot argue with them. They will dictate to you and hunt you down like the dog they think you are. Just like in Ireland where they said if you don't pay the tax we will just take it out of your bank acct.
