A Country of Idiots

For those that might have missed where the Speaker of the House (Congress) said they are thankful for American's ignorance, read the first sentence:

Now, we are all familiar with the annual tax filing ritual, but thankfully few Americans are familiar with the IRS collections process. Of the $2 trillion per year that the IRS collects through self-assessment, a small percentage, but a large amount in real terms, approximately $60 billion--$60 billion--remains unpaid at the end of the year. Now, ideally, the IRS would collect every individual tax debt owed to the U.S. Department of the Treasury, but that has not occurred in recent years.
