Poll: Why can't everybody be as nice as the IRS during the recession?

Hopefully this will help out Wesley Snipes.

With the recession driving all of America to consider prostitution, the IRS is showing their nicer side. They're waving tax penalties and postponing asset foreclosures, doing all they can to renegotiate payment plans to keep struggling tax payers from going under.

What other financial help could you use during the recession?

Every day at noon Obama should drop sacks of money from helicopters.
Make life insurance companies pay out even in the case of suicide. My kids need that cash, and I shouldn't have to try and make it look like an accident!
