Joe Biden doesn’t care. He gave the IRS the money to get them to back off the Hunter tax evasion investigations.
Throw them in internment camps.
I wish they would start with the armed agents.
I never could get my head around the idea of the Taxman toting a firearm in America.
I understand why DOGE started with USAID (Ukraine War for starters), but it would have been HYSTERICAL watching the Democrats bitch, had they started with the IRS.
They can pick the crops…..
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!
“... in a restructuring that could strain the tax-collecting agency’s resources during the critical tax-filing season ...”
Unless the remaining IRS employees are double-digit IQ drones they will get the message: “You are expected to provide a full day of productive work for which you are being paid a fair if not exorbitant salary.”
If you disagree with that analysis, you are encourages to seek employment elsewhere.
Why are they crying?
They could have taken the buyout and been paid till September
Did the Inflation Reduction Act fund the IRS?
“This boost in tax revenue occurred because of the Inflation Reduction Act, which President Joe Biden signed into law in 2022. It originally allocated $80 billion in new funding for the IRS over 10 years. Congress later reduced that sum to $60 billion.”
It was unusual that Joe really fought for this. Now we know why.
6,700?
Not enough.
Good. I already got my refund. I’m still trying to figure out what to do with my $69 windfall. I don’t want to spend it all in one place.
Scanning comments, I thought this was the Terminator.
An enormous amount of taxes are now paid via computer program and submitted electronically. A simple AI system can analyze these taxes and at least 10% of the staff can be let go. It's not like 25+ years ago when it was all paper.
All these probationary employees were hired on Biden’s watch. Government hiring propped up Joe’s fake job numbers that he crowed about.
Should be 6700 + 85,000
You ain’t gonna get me to shed a tear.
They’re, doubtless, all as corrupt as the FBI!
If we moved to the Flat Tax, Steve Forbes post card Form 1040 we would not need more than a few thousand at IRS.
Like “1000 lawyers inna sea.” A good start.
only 73,000 to go from the 80K hired a few years ago.
THEN you start rebaslining the IRS.
