The ONLY solution to the IRS is its abolishment.
The IRS union is very good example, but it would help to get the unions out of ALL government.
Nope. Simplify the tax code and exterminate the IRS. Raze the buildings and salt the earth to make sure.
END GOVERNMENT UNIONS
It’s government employees negotiating with government employees, about pay and benefits for government employees.
Anyone else see the problem here?
Need to get the unions out of all gov’t agencies.
I used to think the same way about government unions until I married a woman who works for the VA. The only thing protecting white government employees from racist black superiors is the union. So, if you want to turn the IRS into a racist lynch mob, get rid of the unions. Otherwise, go for abolishing the whole corrupt agency, creating a new tax enforcement division, and prohibiting anyone who worked at the IRS from being hired there.
I’ve often also wondered if it would be helpful if we used the honorable and dishonorable discharge system for federal employees to help keep them honest. Anyone involved in the Lois Lerner debacle, for instance, would be dishonorably discharged and that would follow them around for the rest of their lives.
THere should be no Public Employee unions in the Fed Gov period! I shouldn’t have to be working for DEM!
A journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step. That would certainly be a good first step.
There should be no union for any government employee. Period.
TIMEEEEEEE!!!!!! TIM...TIM...TIMEEEEEEE!!!!
To buy a clue press 2 for Spanish.
The reek of dumb permeated the room.......
TIMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!
The very sacred cow big D democrat Franklin D. Roosevelt was quite clear on the point that federal employees can join any union they want, but that they cannot collective bargain, because under Civil Service law, Congress sets the wages. That is to say... unionize all you want, but you have no legal voice to collectivize your employment under Civil Service. That’s in the original. Somewhre, along the way through lawsuits judiciary activism and much else, we have arrived where we the People are dictated to by bureaucrats that are unionized who dictate to us what WE will pay them— and make zero line budgeting the servant of their pay raises (”give me a COLA”).
Scott would do well to invoke FDR to get the proper attention and respect from libs (maybe, they long ago found this power base to leverage total control)— which will expose the union libs from the elitist libs, and start the ball rolling. No one who has a federal job should be unionized, and this would devolve down to AFSCME and other “service” unions of govt. workers. And, good luck with all that thanks to the judiciary. But.. WE make the laws, and we can change them- nothing is “written” but what we write.
Two links: the page at FDR library (they take pains to indicate that FDR had no writings/records on municipal state, county employees unionizing/bargaininge etc) and
various covering quotes on private sector unionization to “balance” this

A PDF of a press interview and exchange of letters with the Pres. of the National Federation of Federal Employees in 1937!! Depression commie laden pre WWII. The commies were at it inside our govt. and admin.
A quote in this pdf in the exchange of letters, from FDR to the President of the Natl. Fed. of Federal Employees:
“All Government employees should realize that the
process of collective bargaining, as usually understood,
cannot be transplanted into the public service. It has its distinct and insurmountable limitations when applied to public personnel management. The very nature and purposes of Government make it impossible for administrative officials to represent fully or to bind the employer in mutual discussions with Government employee organizations. The employer is the whole people who speak by means of laws enacted by their representatives in Congress. Accordingly administrative officials and employees alike are governed and guided, and in many instances restricted, by laws which establish policies, procedures or rules in personnel matters.”
