Curious as to why you provided an archive link instead of a link to the actual source of the article? Is it to ensure the link survives for a prolonged period of time?
Ah. So using archive gets around the paywall or does someone have to have a subscription to bloomberg to be able to initially read the whole article and then generate the archive link?
The link for this post is using an archive for the article on Bloomberg's website. An archive has no paywall, no subscription requirement, and can be easier to read. The original article, on Bloomberg's website is:
When the paper from IRS is coming into your mail... return it back and writing on the envelope: RETURNED FOR VALUE NO CONTRACT Please provide any document in which, I as a living man I signed and consent that you, as a government agency (aka private corporation) you have ANY jurisdiction or authority over my own money and labor.
They really don't understand or probably don't care about the long term consequences of the friction they create, how it harms small business and centralizes the economic, making it more simplistic and less competitive.
