Enron, the IRS and Pensions
Dale Amon (Belfast, Northern Ireland)  Opinions on liberty

Harry Browne has a new item online at Worldnet Daily. It's an interesting take on why the loss of Enron's employee pension money can be laid at the IRS's door. The income tax laws are the reason employee pensions are handled inside companies rather than by the employees themselves.

I'd never looked at it this way before, but he's right.
