  • Good Afternoon

  • and welcome to the United States Treasury Department

  • November FATCA Q&A session for

  • every non US bank in the world and every non-US country in the world

  • in honor of Obama's open government initiative

  • we're going to be taking questions today in instant message format

  • So! To kick it off what is FATCA?

  • well, basically we don't like the way that you have been handling taxes for American citizens

  • in all of your countries, so we're gonna put the United States Internal Revenue Service in charge

  • . . . if your bank's choose not to cooperate with us

  • we're going to impose a 30 percent withholding tax

  • on any activities undertaken by that bank

  • and any of that bank's customers whether they're American citizens or not

  • 15 F***ing aircraft carriers that's how! You're living in our world B*** get used to it!

  • Oh Sure! It's just withholding, it's a lot like

  • US income tax withholding except you don't get any services in return

  • and there are no refunds...

  • its easy all you have to do is just give us

  • any information you have about accounts for US citizens

  • Oh, uh sorry there's one more thing...

  • actually ... because you're going to have to prove to us

  • that you don't have any US accounts you're probably just going to have to give us

  • all of the information from all of your accounts

  • Why? We're great with private information, just ask Edward Snowden!

  • Because we own your asses! Free Ride is over f***!

  • Do you have any idea how much it pisses us off when people don't do things

  • our way?! We've been carrying the free world for 50

  • Goddamn years and it is time we got paid!

  • Oh that's not a problem. For rich countries like yourselves

  • we are happy to sign an agreement under which

  • you agree to force your banks to give you the information

  • which you will then send to us.

  • Oh ...well yeah that's ... that's certainly what the agreement will say.

  • But good luck getting our bankers and their congressmen to agree to that

  • I'm sorry I didn't catch that?

  • Oh yeah that reminds me of something.

  • All of your banks are going to have to sign

  • individual agreements with the IRS

  • in English and then fill out a whole bunch of forms with us in English

  • But! We have got tons of American legal and accounting professionals who are

  • eager to work with you!

  • For Just 500 bucks an hour!

  • Well then get used to only banking in Africa, F****s!

  • See ... Banking is a rich man's game and we kinda like the idea of keeping it to

  • ourselves. We got a system

  • and we're gonna set it up right!

  • What the F*** China! You want some of this?

  • That's right a one-world system run by the United States of America

Good Afternoon
