If I thought the FTB really gave a damn what I thought I'd send them a small book worth of suggestions to clean up their mess. Number 1 being.. You can't continue to use tax money on refugees and illegals until you take care of your homeless, your hungry, and your veterans first.

The FTB only collects tax money, they don't decide how to spend it. Spending decisions are made by the Governor and his appointees, and State Senators and Assemblyman. You can send them the small book. :)

The FTB is VERY AGGRESSIVE in their collection tactics, and they blatantly violate an assortment of laws in doing so. The FTB's Board of Directors thinks the FTB is doing a great job since no one ever complains about them at these Annual Meetings. I was hoping that I could get some disgruntled people to tell the Board Members what really happens at the FTB. I don't know if the Board Members care or not (I doubt it), but at least if people complain, they can't deny knowing serious problems exist.

The very reason I go to my city hall and neighborhood meetings. If nothing else they can't play stupid after we we publicly point out the problem and potential solution.
