Why do we need an Income Tax at all when we have Magic Money Computers that create money out of nothing?
The Income Tax is not about financing the government it is about politicians selling advantages in the tax code for Campaign contributions.
If we were to completely abolish the Fed Income Tax we would probably come out a head financially as a nation.
Yes, what a crock.
People who are expecting a refund use on line filing (turbo tax, for one) in order to get the refund direct deposited as quickly as possible.
People who are having to pay more in taxes don't mind waiting for the IRS to cash their check - just gives more time to make sure funds are there.
I can't think of any good reason for more IRS agents.
Many years ago I was in NY city at the Rainbow Room for a party. This was back when I would drink a little and I had been doing so. I sat down next to an older lady. She was hilarious. Lol. Every other word was the F word. She was Estelle Gettleman aka Estelle Gettys. So funny!
She was one of the younger person on the show Golden Girls, they made her up to look older. When I met her she looks a lot younger than she did on TV.
The founders fought a Revolution in part over a tax of three pence per pound of tea.
They would recognize the current absurd tax rate as Slavery.
I got my return from the fed and the state cashed my check for the money i owed them. The problem?
Dramatic ramp-ups of IRS agents under Reagan and Biden.
Ah yes, ERS is far better than IRS.
ERS= External Revenue Service.
bttt
I’ll be happy if 100,000 leave the IRS. What a bunch of parasites!
Many of the IRS employees will have no problem with future employment, or just retiring.
They know how the IRS works and should not have a problem getting clients to help with IRS issues.
And disarm the IRS, take their guns, they shouldn’t have them.
And the postal system
I don’t know who, besides MSN, is complaining about there not being enough IRS agents. I filed my return in February and had no problem.
I really don’t see the problem.
I call and nobody EVER answers the phone. Whether 100,000 people are ignoring my call or just 60,000, I don’t see any difference.
I wonder if they are laying off those agents who still owe taxes?
True Bill. I saw it often at The Daily Cardinal when the writer wrote something down, handed it around the desk to be read aloud, so he could then write, “Some are saying...”
That version of the paper’s head editor was Annie Laurie Gaylor, now of Freedom From Religion Foundation infamy.
“It became quite obvious what they were planning.”
Not obvious to me. Tell me.
Make sure they don’t steal any of the guns or ammo stashed by the RATS.
