So you also think we donât need to enforce certain laws. IRS has been defunded for literally decades, we should leave it that way or maybe shut it down?
Nobody has answered my question, do all/most conservatives prefer a weaker IRS? If so, why?
I presume this funding is the beginning of catching the cheats. Itâs not logical to prefer a weaker IRS and then bitch about tax cheats, you get to pick only one.
The moronâs that said spending $80 billion more on the IRS will pay for itself by collecting more taxes. I get it, you think spending $8 billion to collect and extra $500 million is a good thing.
Maybe democrats should give the IRS $80 trillion, thatâll fix the debt.
Maybe we should simplify the tax code and keep rates reasonable, rather than having fake high rates offset by thousands of pages of indecipherable code, enriching tons of lawyers and accountants and requiring billions of dollars worth of treasury outlays to (not really) enforce.
No, the funding of the IRS was fine, this shows they the extra funding was stupid.
The $500 million recovered isnât some criminal conspiracy, it is a rounding error.
I donât look at it as profit and loss, I know the IRS is underfunded and the cheats are taking advantage of it. Iâd like to say Iâll take advantage of further cuts and stop paying taxes but my morality wonât let me do that.
The presidentâs âAmerican Families Plan,â which he will detail this week, will be offset in part by a tax enforcement effort that administration officials believe will raise $700 billion over a decade.
You are fine with spending $8 billion to recoup $500 million in taxes, you should at least be consistent in catching people cheating the government and taxpayers.
You must have missed the link above.

Im fine with catching tax cheats and enforcing laws, absolutely. Mcarley made a good point, its too early in the new spending to know what effect its having anyway.
Heres a question for ya, why are conservatives hot to defund and shut down IRS when nobody else is talking about it? I dont pay extra but i feel good when i pay my taxes, Americas given a lot to me and its literally the least i can do.
