Some interesting facts...

DID you know?

  • The IRS sends out 8 billion pages of forms and instructions each year. Laid end to end, they would stretch 28 times around the earth.
  • It’s estimated that there are twice as many tax preparers as there are police officers in the US. Wow.
  • Taxpayers spend more on taxes than they do for food, shelter and clothing combined.
  • Between 1996 and 2000, 61% of U.S. corporations didn’t pay income taxes. That’s horrible! Don’t think they got away with that for long though…
