IRS Losing Game Of Hide And Seek With Missing Billion

By Greg Michaels

You almost don’t need a Swiss bank when there’s an almost 1-in-5 chance the millions the tax man is looking to collect from you are going to be lost in the IRS’s systems. Due to a breakdown in the agency’s abaci and carrier pigeons, 18% of the cases of individuals who owed at least $1 million as of the end of 2007 (for a total of $1.2 billion in uncollected taxes) were still floating around in cyberspace.

    Abaci pigeon: a small bird possessing a brain the size of a grain of sand, largely known for a lack of reading comprehension and making humorless, fucking dumb comments on Dealbreaker.
    Usage: “The first commenter is a real abaci pigeon.”
