					<description><![CDATA[The problem to me is that while the IRS will pay the man and his counsel, that is money coming from the pockets of the American people - the very people who think things like this are absurd and should never happen.  

It is not too difficult to see the IRS saying it needs more money when it could have spent the time and money in areas other than prosecuting and persecuting legitimate business owners for doing nothing wrong.

I know some of the mental stress when a government comes after you for your legal and legitimate activities, but nothing to the extent of losing my livelihood.  Yet because of the practically unlimited resources and no accountability for Federal employees, they have nothing to fear or worry about.  

(See the cases of Diana Rubens and Kimberly Graves at the VA for example.)

In this case, McLellan nearly lost his business, was harassed by government officials over exercising his rights, had to fight for wrongful taking of his assets and yet the people who brought these actions down upon his head will face no disciplinary actions and continue to be employed by the government.  

Heads need to roll.]]></description>
