 Internal Reputational Service IRS Tax News. There's no news today so we'll go into a random joke. The statistics coming out of the White House about the causes for inflation remind me of the old adage which you've probably heard going something like lies, dang lies, Biden. Yeah, I know, it's an old adage, ancient even. Because statistics don't lie, Biden lies with statistics and words in body language, this last dozen secretaries, although that's a different kind of line and to be fair, he really only lied with their sweet smelling hair which he carefully and reverently picked out of their hairbrushes while they were out somewhere doing his job. But statistics is just a tool and a useful one when properly applied just as words are a useful tool when used to find truth rather than obscure it. So we should stop blaming the tool. Why? Because blaming a tool like statistics for lying instead of blaming the actual liar is a lie leading us to discount, disparage and abandon the very tools that can help us decipher truth.
