Cracked.com has a hilarious post titled 7 Retarded Tax Evasion Schemes.
Read them all, but my favorite is “The Spelling and Punctuation Count Argument.”
Here’s a sampling:
[N]umerous people have argued that JOHN DOE is an entirely different entity from John Doe.
Similarly, people have ignored correspondence without their preferred, unorthodox punctuation as being addressed to the wrong person, as Walter Edward, Kostich, Jr. did with any correspondence omitting that extra comma.
And when all of that fails, just do what Michigan resident Lynn Ealy did: Notify the IRS that his name had been copyrighted and that if the IRS used his name for any purpose, the IRS would be subject to a $500,000 fee
