M.D. Harmon: Governor LePage used the wrong word to express a justified outrage

Gov. Paul LePage has said he was sorry for his comment likening the Internal Revenue Service to the “Gestapo” (in the IRS’ new role as the collector of taxes owed in lieu of buying health insurance under Obamacare).

Since the history of the Geheime Staatspolizei (“Secret State Police”) is one of terror, blood and death using techniques of unspeakable horror in the service of a brutal tyranny, he had no choice but to backtrack on the specific reference.

Too many people are still around who suffered, or whose forebears suffered, at the hands of Hitler’s evil minions. Such people did not deserve to have their memories rubbed raw by such a reference.

Still, any reasonable person (by that I exclude the liberal critics always looking for a chance to pig pile on a conservative governor) can see that there’s no way in the world LePage, by all accounts a personally generous and caring man, meant a literal comparison between the often-abusive IRS and an agency of Nazism.

We’ll look at what might have justifiably riled him in a bit more detail, but first I want to explore some left-wing hypocrisy on the issue of brutal agents of dictatorships.

Recall that hypocrisy is not defined as “having high personal standards and then violating them due to human weakness.” As columnist Jonah Goldberg has often pointed out, if that were the case, the only people incapable of hypocrisy would be those who had no standards at all, since everyone who does profess them fails from time to time to live up to them.

That’s not hypocrisy, it’s our flawed human nature tripping us up. If you want examples, both the Bible and secular histories are full of descriptive accounts beginning at the dawn of time.

No, true hypocrisy is instead citing standards you don’t yourself believe in or practice, and then using them to berate others.

LePage was wrong to use the word he did, but he wasn’t wrong to try to find strong language to condemn what the Patient Deception and Unaffordable Care Act aims to do those who won’t ante up for its requirements for individual mandatory coverage.

True, the penalty payment starts off small, $695 for a single person when it reaches its currently scheduled maximum in 2016, but it will grow.

In the meantime, the only mechanism the law cites for its enforcement is to withhold it from tax rebates. Since that will let many off the hook entirely, expect that to be changed if the law endures past the next election.

In discussing the utter disingenuousness of liberal criticism of LePage, however, remember that the governor’s intent was to criticize an unjustifiable intrusion of state power into the lives of Americans.

Liberals are great defenders of “choice” when it involves wiping out the life of an unborn baby, but when it comes to deciding not to buy insurance, they’re happy to toss the whole idea overboard.

But there’s more. How many conservatives have you ever seen wearing those nearly-ubiquitous-on-college-campuses T-shirts with pictures of a wavy-locked Che Guevara wearing a beret with a red star?

None, I’ll bet. They’re worn exclusively either by naïve innocents or by solid leftists, without any criticism from people on that side of the partisan divide. And when they are worn intentionally, their intent is not to condemn this vicious, brutal, murdering Communist, but to celebrate him.

Indeed, in the history of tyrannies, the red star and the swastika are equivalent symbols. How many of our students are taught that far more people have died at the hands of Marxist regimes than Hitler came close to killing, even though his regime’s slaughters were many and merciless?

Lenin and Stalin and Mao and Pol Pot and Ho Chi Minh made him a piker, however, and people like Cuba’s Castro and agents like Guevara added the shed blood of their victims to the ocean of blood spilled in the name of communism all over the world.

Yet, no one but a neo-Nazi fanatic would be seen displaying a hakenkreuz, Hitler’s “crooked cross” (which actually was an ancient Hindu and Buddhist symbol appropriated by him to denote supposed “Aryan racial purity”).

But red stars and Che romanticism abound on Americans’ chests to this day, perhaps through ignorance for many, but for some as symbols of an historic creed they secretly (or perhaps not so secretly) admire.

Thus, it is pure hypocrisy to call LePage names for going overboard with a word he intended as a condemnation, when they themselves are silent about — or even supportive of — symbols and figures whose record is steeped in the blood of innocents by the multiple tens of millions.

Let’s move on to the question of the IRS and the tax code itself, and whether LePage was right to say its excesses were enough to make you “angry.”

Ten years ago, the libertarian Cato Institute listed “Top Ten Civil Liberties Abuses of the Income Tax,” and they are still as true today as they were then (hat tip to Norm Linnell for informing me about this). The full article is worth searching for to read in its entirety, but here are some “lowlights”:

— The code violates the equal protection of the law by both “vertical” and “horizontal” inequity, taxing people with different incomes at different rates and then, due to a variety of exemptions and exclusions, also taxing many people with the same incomes at different rates.

— The tax code is also “complex, ambiguous and uncertain,” to the point where those seeking advice from the IRS itself about its strictures can often get incorrect or conflicting advice. Also, it is “unstable,” changing from year to year as Congress and the president tweak it to favor some and disfavor others.

— Taxpayers are denied due process, forced into administrative proceedings without a jury trial until a long and expensive appeals process is exhausted; they give up any rights of privacy and are compelled to disclose personal information that may be shared among many agencies; they bear the burden of proving their innocence when their accusers say they have violated the code; they are subjected to unreasonable searches and seizures when their assets are confiscated in advance of court judgments, often leaving them without resources to live on; and they are forced to incriminate themselves by providing potentially damaging data to the IRS under penalty of perjury.

Now, not all this is the IRS’ fault. Congress sets the code’s provisions, although there’s no doubt the IRS is punctilious about enforcing it even on those who ability to understand or live up to all its thousands upon thousands of provisions is extremely limited.

Is that enough to make someone angry? One might instead wonder why more people are not outraged.

    The term has come to be used generically and unfortunately by many to mean “by force” ie, food gestapo; style gestapo, etc. No great outrage is expressed usually and especially unless it is a conservative and particularly Gov. LePage. There was no such outrage when the current President compared his bowling or whatever to “the Special Olympics.” The problem as I see it is: no matter what Governor LePage says, since is a plain speaking real person from Maine, he will be mocked and criticized by the folks from away who have chosen to take over the state of Maine.

  2. minnehonk on July 12, 2012 6:25 AM

    exactly, since I have paid my health care providers out of my savings account, why do I now have to send the IRS a check simply because I pay cash and choose not to carry insurance? In my opinion this is very simply a erosion of my freedom to choose what works best for my situation  while being forced to pay the IRS a additional tax for the right to do so

  3. Lise from Maine on July 12, 2012 7:36 AM

    Hi!

    It is refreshing to have a Governor finally say it like it is.

    I would have preferred though that he not used the words “God damn” on the air referring to his comment about the IRS being a gestapo but I forgive him.

    The IRS has been abusive and continues to be abusive (gestapo) with some of their tactics, and furthermore, the IRS was NEVER created by
    Congress but rather it was created by a “flick of a pen.”

    Check it out yourself.

  4. Alinecdupont on July 12, 2012 8:37 AM

    Deflecting a conversation about the manner in which the Governor of the State of Maine chose to depict the Internal Revenue Service and the first serious attempt the Congress of the United State has made to reform the healthcare policy in our country is, I suppose, appropriate to some.

    But the country isn’t talking about tee-shirts worn by extremists nor about “wiping out the life of an unborn baby” (where the heck did THAT come from?). They’re talking about the Governor of our state.

    The simple point is that Paul LePage, in spite of numerous admonitions, continues to demonstrate his inept understanding of statesmanship.

    This time, it was calculated. It wasn’t an off-hand quip. It wasn’t a thoughtless reaction in the heat of the moment. Our state’s chief executive went to his vile wordsmithing closet and chose to insert a heinous invective into what should have been a reasoned (albeit negative) reaction to a ruling of the Supreme Court with which he disagrees.

    And by the way, one might wonder how one might wonder why more people aren’t outraged. In case you haven’t been listening, Maine has, once again, been humiliated in the eyes of the nation and the world from sources as diverse as the New York Times, The Boston Globe, Fox News, the Times of Israel and the BBC.

    I believe the penalty amount, after fully phased in, will be the greater of 2.5% of household income over the income tax filing threshold or $ 695.   Using 2011 thresholds a single person with income of $ 100K  would pay over $ 2,000.

    The Democrats will not be running to raise taxes, continue the welfare system in its present form, reverse the pension reforms, or restore the regulatory system in its previous form.  They will be running against Paul LePage (who is not running for anything this year).  And they will be attacking him on style, not on substance.

    This obsession with appearance is reflected in some of the comments on this thread.

    Meanwhile they are in head-long flight from Maine’s funniest blonde joke, who has the Democrats’ line Senate line on the ballot.

    Nice image used to highlight this opinion piece.

    Accept that it’s wrong – there is no threat of jail time in the Affordable Care Act for not following the individual mandate.

  18. nyp on July 12, 2012 2:37 PM

    in other words, there really isn’t anything particularly wrong about the law right now, but in the future it will mutate into a liberty-destroying monster.  
    I think that is nuts.

  19. socrateslocke on July 12, 2012 4:27 PM

    Cris, you actually did what MD observed about LePage’s critics.  You took 1 word, albeit a poorly chosen word, and endeavor to beat the governor with it.  You can’t defend Obamatax’s $500 billion tax increase, which Stephen Moore estimates 75% will be paid by the  middle class, so you pay attention to only 1 word in the speech.

  20. socrateslocke on July 12, 2012 4:34 PM

    It isn’t an individual mandate.  SCOTUS said a mandate is unconstitutional under the Commerce Clause.  It’s an individual tax.  What happens if you don’t pay tax?  The IRS uses a plethora of existing enforcement laws to fine and/or jail you.

  21. Cris Edward Johnson on July 12, 2012 5:25 PM

    So tell us, Socrates, how do you defend Paul’s discussion with the press in Vermont, this morning?

  22. socrateslocke on July 12, 2012 5:48 PM

    I agree that the IRS is heading in a bad direction when it can bring its severe enforcement powers to bear on taxpayers for failing to buy a product that the same law raises the price of.

    SCOTUS just made it legal to tax you for not buying a federal government designated firearm.   Think about it in that light and Obamatax’s flaw should make sense to you.

  23. Cris Edward Johnson on July 12, 2012 6:26 PM

    Might we agree that disagreement with the provisions of the Affordable Care Act is a matter of philosophical difference, but Paul LePage’s public handling of it was inappropriate?

    Seriously, this is the heart of the matter. Our nation is in a transition. What Maine needs is an articulate and thoughtful leader: Paul LePage isn’t that guy.

  24. Cris Edward Johnson on July 12, 2012 6:27 PM

     Read the statute, please. There are no criminal sanctions.

  25. RM Russell on July 13, 2012 6:22 AM

    It just makes me so sad(sob) and angry that many of our citizens’ feelings are hurt by our plain-speaking governor. Boo-hoo.
    Grow up! Our country and our state are in the fight of their lives and if all you can think about and wish for is “articulate and thoughtful” you have missed the boat.

  26. Dlbrt on July 13, 2012 7:55 PM

    Thank you! I hope I can do it again!
