2012 Predictions

1. A politician making an inoffensive remark about a politically-protected minority group (or gender) will be forced to apologize for being “insensitive.” He will have to grovel before the proper PC authorities and swear that if he could, he would have marched with Doctor Martin Luther King Jr. (or whichever group icon it may be).

There will be no declaration of war or even a congressional “resolution” to authorize the action. Republicans will complain that even though Obama does exactly what they want they will insist that he appeared weak in the process, bringing great shame to America.

It demanded, basically, that foreign banks withhold up to 30 percent of the income that an American abroad might earn. This bill isn't working so well because overseas banks are not cooperating (a state of affairs that was certainly expected). Thus, there is a need for something else: Senate Bill 1813, recently introduced by Senator Barbara Boxer (D-CA). This bill, in part, states that taxpayers with unpaid taxes over US$50,000 may find their passports confiscated. This isn't criminal per se, but the IRS has recently made noises about "sharing" information with police a...
