Anti-ObamaCare Movie Maker Hit with Audit

10/9/2014


The producer of a new movie that criticizes Obamacare has reportedly become the latest prominent conservative slapped with an IRS audit.
Logan Clements, producer of “Sick and Sicker: ObamaCare Canadian Style,” announced via press release Tuesday that he is being audited for the first time ever.
The news comes one month after the conservative Breitbart News announced that it, too, was being audited and that the action was probably politically motivated.
Mr. Clements‘ movie makes the case that Obamacare will eventually lead to socialized medicine like Canada.
This comes via Ed Morrissey at Hot Air, which also gives us the guy’s video response:
My only quibble with the guy is his statistical claim about the unlikeliness of him and Breitbart getting hit with an audit. Here, I have the same quibble I have with people who cite those statistics that supposedly prove how unlikely it is for x number of IRS hard drives to have gone bad. People need to understand that probability assessments depend on knowledge before the event; it all goes back to the Monty Hall problem. But that’s a minor quibble and to explain it properly here would take too long and be distracting. It should probably be the subject of a different post.
The main point here is that this federal government is corrupt and essentially illegitimate. We need to do what we can to return it to its core responsibility of providing for the common defense and not much else. I’ll keep making that point here. Guess I’ll get my own receipts in order as well.
