Sorry. The author is speaking of fantasy. Big government can chop up babies and eat them on TV. It’s here to stay. We won’t easily be rid of any major department. We still have the Rural Electrification Board. Ronald Reagan was right. The closest thing to immortality is a government (agency or program.)
Here’s the thing: How can the IRS expect taxpayers to supply information upon their request when their own Lois Lerner refuses to supply information upon Congressional request via pleading the Fifth? I’ve got a funny feeling there will be much less compliance from taxpayers from now on with IRS requests for information.
