This April 15th, the first round of the Clinton taxes are due. While the IRS is not made up of crazed serial killers, it is under orders from the President and the Democratic majority to collect the largest tax increase in history. And this forced collection may kill our economic recovery. Mr. Speaker, Friday the 13th movies were far-fetched horror fantasies meant to entertain and scare moviegoers. The President's Friday the 15th fiasco is a real life tragedy which will hurt the economic growth, punish middle class business owners and cause future job losses.
