"The real stable datum in handling tax people is NEVER VOLUNTEER
ANY INFORMATION [...] The thing to do is to assign a significance
to the figures before the government can [...] I normally

I always put enough errors on a return to satisfy their
bloodsucking appetite and STILL come out zero." —
L. Ron Hubbard,
Organization Executive Course, Vol. 3, p. 63
"I have been privy to financial schemes and scams involving
tens of millions of dollars. I also know how Scientology
