Your Non-Political IRS Hires Non-Partison Birthing Person To Terrorize Conservatives The IRS...

You're so gullible!!!

There won't be 87,000 new IRS employees; that's just another lie for suckers like you, LOL!!! The truth is about 6500 new agents. OOOPS!!!

Sen. Rick Scott (Fla.), head of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, sent an open letter last week warning Americans not to work for the IRS. He falsely claimed that the Democrats’ climate, energy and tax bill would add “roughly 87,000 agents” at the IRS, creating “an IRS super-police force” ...

When you figure in attrition (current funding doesn’t let the IRS fill all vacancies), Treasury officials tell me, the expected increase in personnel would be more like 40,000, over the course of a decade — which would merely restore IRS staffing to around the 117,000 it had in 1990.

Only about 6,500 of the new hires would be “agents.” The rest would be customer-service representatives, data specialists and the like. ...

As for the IRS coming after “hardworking Americans,” Treasury says the new law will result in a “lower likelihood of audit” for ordinary taxpayers, because technology upgrades will enable the IRS to target the actual tax cheats — the super-rich — for more audits. The wealthiest 1 percent defraud the government, and fellow taxpayers, of more than $160 billion a year.

Curious, isn't it, how interested republican leadership is in protecting those super-rich tax cheats and their $160 billion/year worth of fraud!!

87,000 irs agents to investigate 1,000 people.

Sporty: check your math! The 1% wealthiest Americans are far more than 1000 people. Unless our population has suddenly dropped to 100,000 LOL!!!

The republicans should sic them onto the ukrain and berisma/hunter.
That’ll keep them busy and recoup some revenues

There's another deep state department that needs some serious reform.

LOL, 87,000 new armed irs gestapo needed to investigate 1,000 people.

I keep telling you that claim is a flat out lie. And you keep trying to move the goalposts and change the subject.

But the fact remains the IRS isn't hiring 87,000 armed agents, or even 87,000 agents.

And the 1% who file fraudulent tax returns number far more than 1000 people - we've got 150 million tax filers in this country! What's 1% of 150 million, sporty??

Go ahead, post all the shovel pictures you like; it won't make your claim true.

What else would you expect from that corrupt clown show?

TrumpIsFinallyGone · 41-45, M

Interesting. I assume we'll be seeing a lot of them attacking and being violent towards IRS agents now just like they did the capital police and FBI. I hope they tone it down though to just messages threatening to kill them and their families like they do to elected officials.

Lois Lerner didn't want the job?

Considering how the IRS is seeking armed agents I have to think that Biden is anticipating a possible future taxpayer revolt.
