I love posts that are presented as facts but start by using the word "projected." and the source is not even the IRS.

 I have lived through the end of the world 26 times.  

Why not publish documentation when the IRS has levied any of the penalties?  I have more important subjects to be concerned with.

No one that would be eligible for all these "projected" penalties will be on this website.
