Alright, listen up, you freedom-loving patriots (and you commies too, I guess). Uncle Sam's hand is reaching deep into your pockets again, and the tax filing deadline is looming like a woke mob ready to cancel your grandma. If you haven't filed yet, you're playing a dangerous game.

The IRS, that glorious bastion of efficiency (lol, jk), is waiting with bated breath to collect its pound of flesh. They've got their VITA and TCE programs, staffed by volunteers probably indoctrinated in some gender studies course, ready to "help" you navigate the Byzantine tax code. Sure, they're "free," but you're still paying for it somehow, probably through higher taxes on businesses that actually create jobs.

Speaking of the tax code, it's a joke. A convoluted mess of loopholes and deductions designed to benefit the wealthy and politically connected. You think those Hollywood elites are paying their fair share? Please. They've got armies of accountants and lawyers finding ways to dodge taxes while you're struggling to figure out if you can deduct your cat's vet bills (you can't, unless it's a service animal, and good luck proving that).

If you're running late, you can always file for an extension. That buys you some time, but don't think you're off the hook. You still gotta estimate what you owe and pay it by the original deadline. Fail to do that, and the IRS will slap you with penalties faster than you can say "inflation." And who benefits from those penalties? Probably some government program funding critical race theory in elementary schools.

The real solution? A flat tax. Simple, fair, and everyone pays the same percentage. No more loopholes, no more deductions, no more armies of accountants. Just a straightforward system that everyone can understand. But the swamp creatures in Washington will never let that happen. They're too busy enriching themselves and their cronies.

So, what are your options? You can keep complaining about taxes and getting bent over every year, or you can start demanding real change. Call your representatives (good luck getting them to listen), support candidates who advocate for tax reform, and spread the word. The more people who wake up to this scam, the better.

Meanwhile, get your taxes filed. Use the IRS website, find a VITA volunteer if you're desperate, or hire a tax professional if you can afford it. Just get it done. Otherwise, you'll be funding the woke agenda and lining the pockets of corrupt politicians.

And remember, always question everything. Especially when the government tells you it's for your own good. They are probably lying.
