Giant octopus: IRS has 8 offices to enforce Obamacare
The Washington Examiner's Washington Secrets ^ | May 21, 2013 | Paul Bedard

The Internal Revenue Service, charged with implementing the biggest change in tax laws in 20 years due to Obamacare, has created eight offices and special "teams" to handle the chore, way more than initially revealed.

Besides the top office headed by the woman in the middle of the IRS-Tea Party scandal, there are seven others and a special enforcement team that make up an organization chart that mirrors the organization of the IRS itself, according to a Treasury Inspector General's report.

The June report focused on concerns that the IRS, which is filling the Obamacare offices with 2,137 agents and officials to make sure citizens and companies comply with the new health law or pay a fine, isn't clear on its new role and how many new workers it will actually need. For example, the IRS will be in charge of analyzing hospital "community benefit activities," which it has never done before.

But in that report was the organizational chart revealing the series of Obamacare offices. They are led by a steering committee that coordinates Obamacare implementation across the IRS. It is led by the agency's deputy commissioner for services and enforcement, the office linked to the IRS scandal. Ousted acting IRS Commissioner Steven T. Miller recently had that job.

Other branches include three program management offices, four services and enforcement offices, and services and enforcement exchange working teams....

Holy cow, that’s a lot more offices for Miller, Lerner, Shulman, Ingram, Paz, Grant and Obama to not know anything about.

One office to see if you have the CORRECT party affiliation.

Another office to see if you are not white.

Another office to determine if you have at least
one Koran in your home.

THEN, you may get medical or surgical care within 25 months.

With a UNION? or Congress? then no wait at all.

I can't in good conscience support the move to give the IRS more influence over my life.

These public employees unions need to be abolished because no one is accountable for their criminal actions.

One whole office to ask you if you’ve been praying and what your prayers were about.

The IRS is No Longer Needed

No more complicated tax forms, individual audits, or intrusive federal bureaucracy. Retailers will collect the FairTax just as they do now with state sales taxes. All money will be collected and remitted to the U.S. Treasury

Sure reminds me of a line from some document written by a bunch of old white guys...

"He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people, and eat out their substance."

Oh, so that's how Obama is going to pay for ObamaScare.

The head needs to be cut off of this IRS ‘snake’ before it starts to uncoil.

Remember a special department was created with obamacare for us to turn in for rewards those that don’t comply.

“comply with the new health law or pay a fine”

Didn’t Joh Roberts rule it was a tax?

Scene: A large posh office. Two clients, well-dressed city gents, sit facing a large table at which stands Mr. Tid, the account manager of the architectural firm. (original cast: Mr Tid, Graham Chapman; Mr Wiggin, John Cleese; City Gent One, Michael Palin; Client 2:, Terry Jones; Mr Wymer, Eric Idle)

Mr. Tid: Well, gentlemen, we have two architectural designs for this new residential block of yours and I thought it best if the architects themselves explained the particular advantages of their designs.

(There is a knock at the door.)

Mr. Tid: Ah! That’s probably the first architect now. Come in.

(Mr. Wiggin enters.)

Mr. Wiggin: Good morning, gentlemen.

Clients: Good morning.

Mr. Wiggin: This is a 12-story block combining classical neo-Georgian features with the efficiency of modern techniques. The tenants arrive here and are carried along the corridor on a conveyor belt in extreme comfort, past murals depicting Mediterranean scenes, towards the rotating knives. The last twenty feet of the corridor are heavily soundproofed. The blood pours down these chutes and the mangled flesh slurps into these...

Client 1: Excuse me.

Mr. Wiggin: Yes?

Client 1: Did you say ‘knives’?

Mr. Wiggin: Rotating knives, yes.

Client 2: Do I take it that you are proposing to slaughter our tenants?

Mr. Wiggin: ...Does that not fit in with your plans?

I am so looking forward to 2014. I truly believe Obamacare will be the tipping point for RVII in one way or another. Once the libs see their healthcare go fluster-cluck, all hell is going to open wide. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Obambicare repealed by year end, even with a veto proof 2/3rds. It’s going to get real ugly - we are not Canada or Britain.

They'll have to open up a couple more offices to meet Apocalypse 13:1,

My blurry eyes read eight “orifices” and I thought of the old riddle about seven holes in your head.
