Since its a leap year, don't we all technically get 3 more days to file taxes, not just 2?

Since the government monitors communications in this country, I would like to say for the record that I have no problem paying taxes and that my records for the year are always correct.

IT's probably just another CONGRESSIONAL day OFF. GOD bless the american government. If these FOOLS worked 40 hr work weeks, instead of 15 they'd still find a way to FK something up.

The 16th is a State Holiday in Massachusetts so there are at least 2 places getting 2 extra days and not one.  What is truly laughable is the ire directed at the IRS that is just acting as the collection agent for our huge Federal Government.  The problem is the expansion of Government powers and every single person deriving any support whatsoever whether by benefit or by working for the Government is responsible for this. While the rich pay too few taxes it appears to me that those who use the most public services are actually those who pay none.  This is the welfare state the Democrats, particularly our President have been salivating over for years.  Limousine Liberals telling us how to live, while they get rich, redistributing our income to the "poor" in exchange for providing them a few crumbs in exchange for votes.  Make serving in Congress an unpaid position and watch how quickly things change.

Why is it that every time this notice comes out about the extended due date for income taxes people attack the IRS.  The IRS does not extend the deadline, the Internal Revenue Code calls for the extension.  The IRS is supposed to interpret the law and, generally, does not make the law.  This article should have said that the IRS was announcing that the filing deadline for filing the returns, not that the IRS was extending the deadline as that is blatantly false.

Paying my taxes has never been a problem for me; however, when my payment includes the payment for the rich, that is when I get angry.  I have so little, they have so much, yet I am expected not to jump through loop holes like them because that is not american, guess what.  They all act like communists anyway, and I believe most government officials are the same way, if they were not, they would change the system, but no, it works better this way for the rich and the rich only, why change when something is working for them.  Until the system changes, things will just continue.  Every few years it is brought up again and again, has anything been done about it, no, no, no, because every congressman and woman, every senator, all presidents now and before know that if the system was changed they wouldn't get the chance to enrich themselves.  They are not serving you, you are serving them.  Get the picture, smell the coffee, do something with your vote.

Well if all it takes is a state/district holiday to put off tax day I suggest each and every state immediately declare everyday from April 17th until Dec 31st 2012 a holiday day! Check mate! Protected by the Constutition-States rights!

I sure hope those extra days gives Obamas staff and his friends enough time to pay all their BACK TAXES!! Some due for many years. Congress gives thesae parasites their power--vote em all out, vote RON PAUL President and the IRS will be gone.
