IRS And 501(c)(4) Damned If They Do Damned If They Don’t
We have seen how much trouble the IRS has had just with applications for exemption. To really enforce the law, they will have to audit organizations like American Action Network to determine if maybe some of that media placement actually had something to do with campaigns. The process would end up being like smoothing the air bubbles when hanging wall paper. A tainted 501(c)(4) would shut down and a new one will pop up. Apparently these things don’t require much infrastructure. According to the 990, less than 2% of AAN’s expense are for management and fundraising. That would be outstanding, if it were a charity.
Doctor Dino Denting Deficit ?
I tend to think that the ways in which people are screwed up is related to us evolving over a million years to live in small hunter gather bands and our genomes have not had time to catch up with agriculture and civilization in general. Frankly, though, original sin probably works as well to account for how we are and is simpler to understand.

Over and over again courts have said that there is nothing sinister in so arranging one’s affairs as to keep taxes as low as possible. Everybody does so, rich or poor; and all do right, for nobody owes any public duty to pay more than the law demands: taxes are enforced exactions, not voluntary contributions. To demand more in the name of morals is mere cant.
