Most here are happy to put the cart before the horse because of their emotions. Simplify the IRC first then reduce the workforce. But I'm skeptical we get a simplification of the IRC. Hell, they added to the complexity back in 2017.

I know that MAGA has no plan or desire to govern. They are all in their fee fees and want to burn it all down.

What is MAGAs detailed plan to properly fund the government and reduce the debt?

Details. Not bullshite Muh tArIfFs reee fantasies.

You are in power and need to have a plan.

I appreciate the OP unpacking that it makes sense

I’ve been audited once before it was no fun

It is a small business owner we get computerized notifications from time to time. It’s quite annoying as it always puts a little hint interfere when you open up anything from the eye

99% of them or some stupid notification about an address change which we’ve stayed in the same place for 20 years

I don’t know just another inefficiency and waste with all these computerized letters that go out that are not accurate

The IRS has 100,000 employees, with technology this could easily be cut in half.

Stats show the IRS has increasingly been going after the middle class taxpayers more recently. I’m not sad they are being let go.

Well, #1 is determining what it actually costs to “properly fund the govt” which is a number that nobody knows until we eliminate all of the fraud and waste.

You want to defund the IRS.

So please explain for the class how “technology can cut that number in half” when the agency has no funding? Lmao.

Perhaps it is because Muh small business owners are some of the biggest tax cheats? :idk:

We should all want a fair tax regime and for those breaking the rules to be punished.

I thought MAGA was about law and order?

Or is this diffe(R)ent also from the movement rife with contradictions?

I'm not reading all that.

I've watched the IRS ruin someone's life over a clerical error they made. They admitted the error and it still cost this person tens of thousands of dollars in "compounded interest", over a bill that was originally about 1,100.

I then watched them audit someone's small business I know several times, costing this person thousands in legal fees after it was found they......drum roll....made a "mistake".

frick the IRS and frick anyone that supports these thieves.

I was not talking about the current state of affairs at the IRS.

It was a hypothetical question, genius.

Try to learn reading comprehension before lashing out, pal.

Why are you even trying to debate a groomer that is already telling anyone that is "MAGA" they are retarded and don't want to govern.

You could lay out a solid 20-point plan that is outlined with every detail and this groomer would still call you a retard, Nazi, whatever.

Ignore these idiots and let they sky scream while they defend the IRS, child molesters, illegal rapists, Soros, etc.

For four years they championed a brain dead pedophile and told anyone that questioned his cognitive ability a "Nazi". This idiot also thinks a man can give birth and kids are sex objects. Why debate someone like that?

About the same number as Delta, General Dynamics, Verizon and Shell.

In just one agency.

Man he is on a multi day meltdown.

I get it though it’s tough being a gay liberal in accounting so he is here melting instead of doing work during busy season.

Good. Let's abolish the IRS. I think that would save taxpayers some time



Unless we do away with taxation entirely im not sure how that would work. And should we do away with taxation I’d assume you’d be for the inevitable doing away with the military, social security, Medicare, etc..?

Stop repeating a LIE you frickin retards. 80K agents were not hired. The fundiing was approved.



Then if they havent been hired WHERE'S THE MONEY ? Federal Agencies never let money go unspent that they get from Congress otherwise they risk not getting those funds the next year.

So you fricking thief how did the IRS spend that money if not on personnel?

Then why did Pete Hegseth and his wife get an audit letter a week and a half after he was named Trump's pick for Secretary of Defense? If it's totally random and computer generated
