This response worries me in that one day the IRS will discover that
home owners are doing stuff around their house for free and not paying
taxes. For example if you had a lawn service come in at $50/week, the
grass cutters would probably pay out $20 in taxes. If the current crop
in congress think about this, to make up for the lost revenue, we may
have to pay them $20 every time we cut our own grass

One of our elected twits (NY) was commenting once about taxing barter deals,
and he used the words "garage sales, too". I never heard it mentioned again.
I suspect his wife slapped him silly when he got home.
