A plane crashed into an IRS building in Austin, piloted by a man named Joseph Stack. It appears to be a premeditated domestic terrorist attack. The perpetrator's suicide note, describes about his frustration with the tax code and how it is exploited by corporations and the wealthy, health care reform, how he tried to start an independent business and failed, how the government is working, not for the middle and lower class, but for the rich, and ends chillingly with: "Mr. Big Brother IRS man...take my pound of flesh and sleep well." His writing paints a picture of someone who obviously feels victimized and powerless.
