Quotes

I have no problem with updating the tax code, but my first question is, "where are the references to extending the sales tax to include a mandatory collection from online sales? There is certainly no more modern trend than doing business on line, yet requiring business owners who sell online to withhold sales taxes as is required from brick and mortar stores is strangely absent from tax reform discussions."
Of course, in his humble nature, Hollingsed said,  "I truly appreciate the award, but the majority of the credit for what we do go to the men and women of this agency. They're the ones that make us all proud."
"We like that continuity and we feel like it's most efficient the way it works" he said
"In times like these, we must discuss ways to preserve freedom. Rights are being trampled upon," said Lynda Bennett, tea party executive. "Many legal questions stem from the invasion of privacy such as emails being spied upon, phones being tapped and the IRS targeting people to prevent them from expressing their beliefs."
