Here are some interesting IRS stats:
-The Gettysburg address is 269 words, the Declaration of Independence is 1,337 words, and the Bible is only 773,000 words. However, the tax law has grown from 11,400 words in 1913 to 7 million words today.
-The IRS sends out 8 billion pages of forms and instructions each year. Laid end to end, they would stretch 28 times around the earth.
-Nearly 300,000 trees are cut down yearly to produce the paper for all the IRS forms and instructions.
-American taxpayers spend over $200 billion, and 5.4 billion hours working to comply with federal taxes each year, more than it takes to produce every car, truck and van in the U.S.
-The amount of effort needed to calculate and pay federal income for individuals and businesses in the United States is the equivalent of a staff of 3 million people working full-time for a year.
