Maybe an IRS agent just wanted an all-expense paid trip to Sacramento!
I read an article several years ago that it costs the U.S. Treasury 1.5 cets to make a penny, and that every year they debate whether or not to stop making them, and just round everything off to 5 cents.
And yeah, it's scary that something as inefficient and wasteful as our government can take over healthcare from private industry. Fortunately, there is a chance that it can be repealed before it goes into effect before 2013.
Interesting also, that the Obamacare plan that was supposed to LOWER the cost of healthcare, has actually RAISED the average family's healthcare cost by $5000 per family.
And that those raised premiums are already going into effect, as insurance companies try to raise extra capital, to offset coming cost before the added cost hits them.
Cost passed on to those who can least afford it, of course.
