Government forms and waste



http://graphics8.nytimes.com/packages/pdf/nyregion/2009/records/paperworkreductionreportbycrs.pdf



Americans spend about 10 BILLION hours a year filling out paperwork. 10 BILLION! Nearly 80% of the total "burden hours" come from the IRS.

The figure presented in this document is that it costs Americans roughly $400 billion a year to fill out these forms.

It just makes too much sense to cut down on this paperwork. Which means neither political party will ever do it.

God Bless America.
