George Orwell Would Be Proud
Jan 24th, 2008 by wintercow20
Our Founders drafted the Constitution with fewer than 5,000 words; with later amendments it is about 8,000 words. The federal tax code is more than 9 million words. So the document that created the government is less than 0.1% as long as the tax code that funds it. Such is the state of Washington today.
From Steve Forbes. And I am not talking about 1984.
