thanks Joanne!

Shit. We could pay for the Stimulus Package if IRS would collect all the taxes due us.

"The developments are part of a historic legal struggle that has cracked Switzerland's renowned reputation for banking secrecy and cast a spotlight on what a 2008 Senate hearing identified as $100 billion in annual tax evasion by American owners of foreign accounts."


...Of course, if these taxes had been paid in the first place maybe we wouldn't be in the postion we are in now (not as much borrowing by government would have been required - which drove up house prices.)


I'm emailing Obama http://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/ that we should go after every one of these tax dodgers. Everybody should help our country get through this Deregulation Disaster the Republicans put us in.

We should start an email campaign (spread this message across the inter-net) to go after these tax-dodgers to pay for the stimulus package.
