Well this is interesting. Apparently Bachmannn went to work at the IRS to learn how to beat them. Now, as tax laws seem complex yet clear, I am not sure how one beats the IRS. Either you are in compliance with the law or you are not. I must say, I find her latest spin on reality a bit on the odd side. If you wanted to beat the IRS, wouldn't you go to work as a tax attorney defending folks form the IRS, something she never did. http://www.nationaljournal.com/poli...y-experience-in-south-carolina-video-20110818 Rep. Michele Bachmann played a bit of defense while on the stump in South Carolina on Thursday, spinning her tax attorney experience as an advantage in the fight to revamp the tax code and the IRS. "I went to work in that system because the first rule of war is: Know your enemy," the Minnesota Republican said. "So I went to the inside to learn how they work because I want to defeat them." Her previous job of suing tax evaders on behalf of the Internal Revenue Service is a point of vulnerability for the anti-tax tea party darling. "I'm a former federal tax lawyer. I get how devastating high taxes are, I've seen it, the devastation on businesses and farmers and individuals and families and I'm going to change the economy by changing the tax code," Bachmann said.
