I used to think that also. After a couple of experiences with tax authorities where it was clear they didn't really care about obeying the law, just draining my pockets, I've changed my mind.
Same here.

You usually hear about how bad the IRS employees are, and with any group of that size, I'm sure they have some bad ones. But I've had personal experience with any of them only once, many, many years ago when I was a young clerk in the Post Office. At tax time, I figured I owed more than I had, so I went to the IRS office to inquire about the possibility of a payment plan. Instead, the IRS employee asked some questions, refigured my tax return, and even came up with a small refund instead of me owing them.:shocked:

I guess we are lucky here in Texas. All agricultural related purchases are tax free as long as you're registered and show your ag card.
