MarkB_MI said: (quoted from post at 02:49:07 09/01/13) Well, that's the direction things are going in the US, although we're not there yet. Personally I don't have a problem with it as long as there's no additional cost to the taxpayer, or if at least the cost is reasonable. But what happens here is that special interests get involved and someone ends up making a lot of money off what should be a free service. For example, our Internal Revenue Service could easily provide free tax return software or an on-line site for creation of tax returns. But there are a number of companies that make billions of dollars selling tax return software and services. Those companies spend a lot of money lobbying Congress to ensure the IRS is blocked from creating its own tax return software. Although you can file an electronic return for free if you have a simple return, for anyone with a complex return like mine it costs hundreds of dollars to buy the commercial tax return software to file electronically. Consequently many taxpayers with complex returns refuse to pay for commercial software and still file a paper return. The IRS ends up paying more to process the paper returns than it would cost them to give away tax preparation software.


How smokes, I never even thought of that! Darn good point friend!

As far as the OP and those calling all this gov't intrusion exactly what it is, an over reaching gov't., I agree completely. Look, if they can mandate we have health insurance, they can mandate we have a computer of a certain type or that we drive a particular brand of car, drink a particular brand of coffee, eat only at a particular fast food joint, plant only a particular brand of seed. It most certainly IS a big deal! In the Germany they are raiding peoples homes and seizing their children if they homeschool in order to avoid indoctrination in the public system. In the US they are raiding market gardeners and small dairies. All for the public good of course! I've seen this stuff grow a lot over the past 25 years. It was the over reaching Federal gov't investigating a report of "suspected child abuse", which is NOT a Federal crime by the way, that lead to Waco and all those dead kids.

I'm all for easy communication and efficient operations, but there are lines we simply should never have crossed.

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and ... [Read Article]
