 Intro of this is IRS Tax News. IRS granting died diesel penalty relief as a result of Hurricane Ian. Honestly, gas tax relief sounds appropriate in this situation because the first natural response to seeing a hurricane of that size come in your way is the involuntary release of gas. It wouldn't seem right for the government to be making money from a gas tax when the gas was clearly released out of fear. It may give the government bad ideas. They're like, hey, the deficit's way up. How can we increase revenue? Well, if we scare the crap out of everyone, we can increase our gas tax revenue. Honestly, is this how the whole global warming thing works? A giant storm hits resulting in us releasing a ton of fear related gas causing even larger storms, which then cause even more fear related gas to be released. Like I feel like we're in that Monsters Inc. movie where the people are scared in order to generate energy like for the monsters. But first a joke, the poor actor could not decide if he was a man or a woman. I can't decide, I just can't decide. So he, she decided to split it in the middle. Oh, you want to split down the middle? There you go. Some have called his or her decision half cocked. You can't go around half cocked. But he, she proceeded wholeheartedly with his or her half cocked decision protest. And we know heartedly believe that with your help, we can conflate buying our products with genuine activism. Honestly, I remember the days when most dudes were obsessed with going the opposite direction of this kind of half cocked decision. You don't send them off half cocked. Not that that's healthy either. I'm just saying times they are a changing man. But whatever. I are 2022 dash 169 September 30 2022 Washington.

I R S publication 5 10 excise tax. There's a link to that here has information on the proper method for reporting and paying the tax.
