John Oliver Explains Why the IRS is Like an Anus

This Wednesday is April 15th. Tax day! The day every working American dreads. Sure, you could have filed your taxes months ago and laugh and the poor people who are scrambling to make the deadline. But you didn’t. You know you didn’t. You’re probably trying to find your W2 form and cursing the name of the IRS.

But remember, the IRS isn’t the bad guy. John Oliver, on Last Week Tonight, explains why the IRS gets overly vilified., and why if the federal government were a human body the IRS would be the anus.

Why exactly is the IRS an anus? We’ll let Oliver explain that. But definitely stick around long enough in the video to catch special musical guest Michael Bolton!
