Dr. Ben Carson: After I Spoke Out Against Obamacare -- I Was Audited

Dr. Ben Carson told the audience tonight at the CNN GOP debate that after he spoke out against Obamacare at the National Prayer Breakfast he was audited by the Obama IRS.

Ben Carson Criticized Obama TO HIS FACE At The National Prayer Breakfast In 2013 (MRCTV)

Dr. Carason: I never had an audit until I spoke at the National Prayer Breakfast. And then all of the sudden they came in and said, "We just want to look at your real estate dealings." And then they didn't find anything. And then they took a look at the whole year. And they didn't find anything. And then they looked at the next year and they didn't find anything. And they won't find anything... The fact is the IRS is not honest and we have to get rid of them.

Is anyone surprised by this? Dr. Carson, that’s what our dictator wannabe does.

If the GOP wants to know why people are angry with them ...they could start with issues like that!

Very well said.

I've said it before....

If you're a conservative and you are targeted for destruction, nobody is coming to your aid.

That needs to change.

As much as we complain about Liberals, they help each other.

They have a "mob mentality." If one of them is in need, the mob descends.

Trayvon Martin, Ferguson, MO, Gay Wedding Bakery are three examples.

You know, so they cannot persecute someone for political purposes.


What world do you live in. THE IRS CAN DO ANYTHING IT WISHES, AT ANY TIME AND FOR ANY REASON.

It is America’s GESTAPO and the weapon to keep the public in fear of ever crossing the government elite.

“Dr. Ben Carson: After I Spoke Out Against Obamacare — I Was Audited”

Where there’s smoke there’s fire.

Well, at least according to the Cruz supporters.

Book ‘em Danno

Carson just got flagged for another audit. The IRS does not care what the people think about them. They are without shame, corrupt and above the law. They are the financial hit squad of the administration.

And to think, in 1974, the Democratic led Congress wanted to impeach Nixon for even THINKING about using the IRS as political weapon.

The Income Tax is the problem. It allows a partisan government to spy on & intimidate opponents. We could completely replace the IRS with a different agency with new employees & in 6 months the spying & intimidation would begin again.

A sales tax is anonymous. It doesn’t allow the all powerful government to bully individuals as the current system does now. It abolishes the grossly unbalanced relationship between the individual & the government. It takes the government out of your finances & personal, private info. Best of all, abolishing the income tax ends the awarding/denying of special tax status to so-called non-profit groups.

In 2010 after voicing my opposition to president Obama and donating to the tea party, I got audit by the IRS for 2008, then expanded to 2009 and 2010.

Exact same story with me. Now they are demanding we send proof that we filed taxes from 2002 to 2006.

Hang tough and don’t let them bully you. I hired an old bookkeeper lady that is licensed to deal with the IRS and and she was tough with them. After the audit I owed over $80k where they reduce it to $69k because we went to the supervisor. With interest it went back to $79. They were able to put me on a do not collect program because I told them I couldn’t pay. Finally I was able to negotiate a settlement for $2,500 for every money I owed them including 2012. So almost $90k settled for $2,500.
