[Macho MAGA Man]

Now this is what I call downsizing. MAGA!

[Governor Dinwiddie]

As the late Gary Gilmore once said, “Let's do it!”

[Jonty30]

With the elimination of income tax, possibly, the bureaucracy does not need to be that large.

[No name given]

I’d like to see 99% of their employees downsized.

[griswold3]

I have ideas on efficient filing of US Treasury forms on line. At least you’ll have a receipt

[yldstrk]

Why would you fire half of the people that collect money for you? Sounds like BS to me.

[cgbg]

Another “drop in the bucket”.

Pretty soon those drops are going to turn into a biblical flood!

[suasponte137]

So is this a good year to “fudge” on your taxes.?

I’m TOTALLY joking for any IRS agent reading this :)

[No name given]

Well said.

[Fai Mao]

Geez, now I won’t need code to talk to my banker in the Cayman Islands! /S

[cgbg]

You can compare the dollars collected after the cuts with the dollars collected before the cuts.

It is probably very little difference.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Id like to see the IRS completely 100 percent ABOLISHED but heck this is a good start

[plain talk]

Minorities hit hard!! :-)

“People of color make up 56% of the IRS workforce ...”

[11th_VA]

So instead of waiting 8 hrs on the phone, I’ll have to wait 8 hrs on the phone

[Rummyfan]

Works for me!

[Mlheureux]

100% behind it. Eliminate the nefarious agency that was birth in controversy.

[Mr. Jeeves]

And those political patronage jobs must be eliminated - it will be easier at a hated agency like the IRS. Later, when they get into social workers at HHS, the legacy meadia screaming will be epic.

[TornadoAlley3]

The left will booooo that announcement tonight.

[PGalt]

GRRREAT!

IRS workers DO NOT COLLECT MONEY DIRECTLY.
I pay taxes due using IRS ON-LINE PORTAL.
No humans are in the loop during payments.
Are you a democrat by any chance or just uninformed?
