Tax Reform: Impossible

Here is some vintage Bill Cosby, on a conversation between Noah and God:

That's roughly my reaction to a report that Max Baucus (D-MT) and Orrin Hatch (R-UT) are going to spend a year holding hearings in preparation for some sort of overhaul of the tax code, in the spirit of the 1986 Tax Reform Act.

"Baucus, I want you to enact bipartisan tax reform in an election year, when the ranking Republican is at risk of a primary".

"Right."
