If you are wondering what ‘Bippity-Boppity-Boop’ has to do with un-inventing, you may be male or a millennial. Nothing to feel bad about.
One of the good fairies (there were three) in charge of taking care of Princess Aurora (sleeping beauty) had a magic wand. Whenever she used it, she would aim and point 3 times while saying, [Bippity. etc…] Her magic words of choice popped into my head when I read today’s prompt. I find it sort of scary that Walt Disney is still lurking in my head after all these years. A subject for another blog someday.
Onward with un-inventing something. To me, that means correcting circumstances that have caused major distress in the world. That doesn’t mean I do not have regrets that I would love to “Boop” out of existence. We are talking (at least I am) about the greater good here.
After many hours of debating this question, I think I would un-invent the IRS and start from scratch. The US tax system is ridiculous. It has gotten increasingly complicated with too many forms and departments. I cringe when I think about how much of our tax dollars go toward “running” the IRS, sending letters informing taxpayers of mistakes they made and how much more they owe. Of course, the letter comes 2.5 years after the original forms were submitted. This means not only do you owe more money, but you ALSO owe them 2.5 years’ worth of penalties and interest.
That is just wrong.
