The IRS

Is anyone else ready to file their taxes but employers are dragging their feet in sending out W-2’s or other tx information for 2008?

If so, please complain to your Congressional delegation and to the new President to apply pressure to lazy employers.

The male lead in the film does not do the right thing because it would put his law career at risk.  As a result, several even worse Nazis get light sentences while the illiterate female lead (who had to be 20 years old or younger at the time of the crime she is tried for) gets the heavy sentence.  I have already given too much of a plot spoiler already but this detail did stick in my mind.  I felt sorry for tKate Winslet’s Nazi character even though in real life my sympathies are entirely with German Jews and other European Jews.  Which is another point: a character in the Heidelberg Law School makes some remark about the Holocaust without acknowledging that many victims were German.   Yes, half of the twelve million (12,000,000) were Jewish but the other half were Protestants and Catholics.  Nazi Germany was at fault.  They all knew.  Heck, we knew.  The allies could have bombed the rail lines taking victims to the death camps and did not, despite how easy it would have been to do so.  The first victims were German and to belabor the fact that the first victims were Jewish also is to subtly say that they were different and therefore it was somehow okay.  Well, it is not okay.  I don’t blame the survivor’s daughter for not forgiving.

Never forget.  Never forgive.  Stop picking on minorities because we are all minorities.  Yes, even you the reader who is reading this.
