This year’s George Orwell Prize for Most Intimidating Tax Propaganda goes to the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue for this effort publicizing a tax amnesty that waives all penalties and half of accrued interest on delinquent payments. The initiative has pulled in close to $51 million in back taxes, according to a DOR announcement. The largest payment to date was $1.2 million for unspecified corporate taxes. Better hurry up and get your paperwork in, all you deadbeat Pennsylvania firms; the amnesty ends June 18. And remember: They Know Who You Are. ###
