Tuning for Tomatoes

[Mitch Ruth]

Amen, patriot brother ric!  I went back and read your post again while 
humming "The Battle Hymn of the Republic".  I read the IRS' rules and 
directions and then report what I gotta.  Should I ever be audited (one day 
it'll probably happen), I'll take my lawyer, go to the meeting and smile.  
Know the rules and you don't have to worry.  The funny thing is most of the 
IRS guys don't know the rules either.  There's lots of help out there for 
you if you need it and if you pay for the help, it's a tax write off!

There should be no fear in discussions of barter.   That the Government
expects taxes from barter arrangements is intrusive and if put to a vote of
the people, should prove very undemocratic.  To fear or expect to pay taxes
on barter is  allowing an unpopular law which requires an oppressive
government to enforce it.  We are a democracy, vote it out.   ---ric
