This has been going on for a long time to support the IRS Criminal Investigation Unit, so nothing really new, but with the doubling of the IRS, how are all those new resources to be allocated? 87K new agents to fleece us...at gunpoint if need be?

This is the type of government that our Founding Fathers warned us about -- this is the type of government that exists in almost every other country on earth.

Yeah because the majority of the idiots in charge of making or enforcing the laws uphold their oaths.

LEFT-LEANING SENTIMENT​

​

Only Tax Cheats Would Oppose This Funding for the IRS​

​
  • This legislation would help pay down the deficit by boosting tax revenue and combat inflation by reducing the money supply.
  • The IRS needs this funding to enforce the tax code but also to upgrade its antiquated systems.
  • The proposed IRS hires, which would take place over 10 years time, focus on collecting taxes from wealthy individuals and corporations.
“There’s a Miracle in Washington, and It’s All About Taxes” Steven Rattner, New York Times Op-ed: “Higher taxes used to lower the budget deficit are deflationary. They take money out of the economy, thereby reducing demand, as the Schumer-Manchin package aims to do. … there is an abundance of good in this legislation. That includes roughly $80 billion of new funding for the Internal Revenue Service for enforcement; for years, Republicans have tried to starve the I.R.S. so that rampant tax avoidance could continue largely unrestrained. Coincidentally, on the same day that the Schumer-Manchin compromise was announced, the Congressional Budget Office released its latest fiscal estimates, showing that, absent extensive legislative changes, the nation’s deficit will remain around $1 trillion annually and soon begin escalating. Making even a modest dent in this while addressing major challenges qualifies this legislation as one of the best packages that I can remember Congress giving birth to.”​
“Why does the IRS need $80 billion? Just look at its cafeteria.” Catherine Rampell, Washington Post Opinion: “Yes, the cafeteria. It’s part of what the IRS calls the ‘Pipeline’: a 1970s-era assembly line used to process tax returns at several locations around the country. And it might give you a sense of why Congress is on the verge of handing the agency $80 billion through the Inflation Reduction Act — not only for more enforcement but also for tech modernization. As of July 29, the IRS had a backlog of 10.2 million unprocessed individual returns. Blame the pandemic, sure, but also the agency’s embarrassingly outdated, paper-based system, which leaves stacks and stacks of returns cluttering shelves, hallways and even the cafeteria. On the Pipeline, paper tax returns aren’t scanned into computers; instead, IRS employees manually keystroke the numbers from each document into the system, digit by digit.”​
One more opinion piece from the Left: Kevin McCarthy would rather help tax cheaters than honest Americans following the rules Editorial Board, The Fresno Bee​

RIGHT-LEANING SENTIMENT​

​

Democrats Want to See Americans Get Crushed by the IRS​

​
  • This funding will put the IRS on a rampage and empower it to go after the middle class with more lawsuits, audits, and criminal referrals.
  • The IRS operates like a group of lawless thugs and this funding would just empower them to abuse even more Americans.
  • Even if the IRS expansion is legitimately rooted in finding tax cheats, innocent and hardworking Americans will be caught up in the dragnet.
“The IRS Is About to Go Beast Mode” Editorial Board, Wall Street Journal: “Progressives want Joe Biden to unleash what they call ‘beast mode’ executive power, and the Schumer-Manchin tax bill supplies the cash to turn the Internal Revenue Service into Wolverine. … Democrats claim this ‘investment’ will yield more than $200 billion in revenue. That estimate is highly speculative, but if it’s anywhere close to right IRS auditors will soon be coming after tens of millions of Americans. The $80 billion is more than six times the current annual IRS budget of $12.6 billion. The money will be ladled out over nine years and comes with few strings attached. The main Democratic command is for the tax agency to bring the hammer down on taxpayers. The bill earmarks $45.6 billion for ‘enforcement,’ including ‘litigation,’ ‘criminal investigations,’ ‘investigative technology,’ ‘digital asset monitoring’ and a new fleet of tax-collector cars. The result will be far more audits, civil suits and criminal referrals.”​
“Supersizing an incompetent, unaccountable IRS” Ben Susser, Washington Times: “Democrats are doubling the size of the IRS, with most of the new money going into its enforcement arm. The bill provides 14 times as much funding for ‘enforcement’ — as in fishing expedition audits — than it does for ‘taxpayer services’ such as answering the phone. It is dangerous to give an unaccountable and incompetent agency this much power over families and small businesses. Audits of the agency by the official IRS watchdog… have shown a consistent lack of regard for due process and taxpayer rights. All too often, the average household or small business owner pays the price for the IRS’ culture of incompetence or outright neglect. … IRS raids have been described as ‘military style.’ Victims have told of being in a ‘deep depression that lasted a year.’ … when Congress investigated these charges… witnesses testified behind sheets with their voices disguised as though they were informing on the mafia.”​

LOL they won't need all them people. They will pull the old "Spitzer Move"

In case you forgot. 20 years ago, or so. Gov Spitzer told his Tax dept to just send out sales tax collection notices to all small business in the state telling us that "you didn't report a quarterly sales tax from 10 or 15 years prior, like 2nd quarter of 2003, you owe the state $353 ( it was never more than $400 ) most small business would just pay it. The state collected millions of dollars

The IRS will do the same thing, except they will go after the middle class and upper middle class, they very people that don't have the wherewithal to fight the allegation's.

and trust me, the IRS will go back as far as they want. 7 years, 10, 20, they WILL find 'something'

I saw one about hiring 87,000 armed school resource officers instead. It put this issue into a slightly different perspective.

I wonder which side would have a problem with hiring 87,000 school resource officers?

The school problems aren't due to a lack of defense.

SROs are a band aid on the real problem.

You need to fix the culture and accountability of the students.

Nothing else will solve the problem.

Its going to take some time, to recruit, train 87,000 people. But in that time Im going to bet a wooden nickle that the tax laws are going to be changed in bad way. Probably really going to be bad for small business.

IRS Annual Report Shows Training of Heavily Armed Agents Raiding Suburban Homes (PHOTOS)​

RS Criminal Investigation special agents can be seen in the 2021 annual report of the Internal Revenue Service conducting a variety of deadly force exercises. The agents are trained to shoot and kill you over your government taxes. The training exercises include building entry, the use of weapons, defensive tactics, and others.

The Gateway Pundit previously reported that the IRS is looking for new agents — including armed and fit federal tax agents who are “willing to use deadly force” according to the job posting.

The duties also include “willing and able to participate in arrests, execution of search warrants, and other dangerous assignments.”

“IRS:CI special agents receive regular refresher training. They attend quarterly training in firearms, defensive tactics, and building entry,” the report reads.

“Through frequent use of force training, they maintain their skills and abilities to ensure good judgement and to apply the appropriate degree of force necessary to safely carry out enforcement activities, including issuing search warrants, arrests, surveillance, dignitary protection, undercover activities, and seizures.”

Anyone who thinks they are simply tax agents are either morons or so diluded.

This is the second coming of the Schutzstaffel. Modern day Kristallnacht is already happened.
