If you think you've heard all the arguments to abolish the IRS .....

 bet you haven't heard of this one : tax patents ! Oh yeah, if you finally get around to untangling the tax code, you can get a patent on your work. However disgusting this may sound, you'd have to admit that whoever is able to accomplish this has most certainly done more work than, say, the "inventor" of the "one click purchase" (held by Amazon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1-Click), or "buy it now" patents (http://news.cnet.com/8301-10784_3-9882151-7.html).

Here are some links on the subject of tax patents:
