Andrew Joseph Stack III, 53 was definitely one sick puppy crashing
his plane into an IRS office in Austin, TX.

Wasn't it Ben Franklin that once said something about death and taxes?

Mr Stack didn't feel he was obligated to pay his taxes.

Hell of a way to take out his frustrations.

Now Stack's estate gets to pay the IRS?

I think he probably burned up his estate, he burned his house down this
morning prior to taking the plane trip. *He was up for audit, I suspect
the government pretty much had it all to start with.

Thereby depriving his wife and daughter of a house to live in. *He was
****ed off at the world. He wanted to hurt as many people as possible.

And get this, HE WAS A SOFTWARE ENGINEER!!! That explains a lot.

Hey, I resemble that remark! *He was also a small-time self-employed software engineer,
which isn't a road I'd want to be walking in this day and age.

AIUI, he owned a small software company who hired only "contractors"
and paid on 1099s. The IRS ruled (or was about to) that they were
employees so he had to fork over back withholding and employment
taxes. He played the game, badly, and lost and was ****ed because he
got caught.
