IRS Spent $60,000 on Star Trek Parody
Spectacularly awful
The Internal Revenue Service will soon be deciding whether to audit your taxes -- but be aware, these are the same people who spent thousands of dollars of taxpayer money creating this incredibly clunky Star Trek spoof
Shown at a 2010 training session, this Trek video was created in an IRS studio, using taxpayer dollars. There was also a Gilligan's Island spoof, but according to the IRS most of the $60,000 price tag went on the Trek video.
