Shocking… IRS Now Has More Agents Than German Army
Gateway Pundit ^ | 7-30-2013 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 07/30/2013 7:06:01 AM PDT by servo1969

The Internal Revenue Service includes an estimated 106,000 agents and employees. The Treasury Department allocated $11.522 billion to the agency for operations in 2009.

Thanks to Obamacare the agency is expected to hire from 11,800 to 16,500 new agents. That means the IRS will have from 117,800 to 122,500 after Obamacare is implemented.

The IRS has more agents than the German (62,279), Spanish (75,000) and Canadian (68,250) armies.

The Family Research Counsel also points out these shocking facts:

** The IRS has its own SWAT team.
** It has its own intelligence unit.
** And it has more agents than the armies of Canada, Spain or Germany have soldiers

Don’t you feel safe now?

Nothing, NOTHING, surprises me anymore.

Just like the German’s of the 1930’s were secretly collecting aircraft, perhaps the IRS is amassing hoards of drones.

To Germany, the Wehrmacht. The “Regime”, the IRS.

Here is my official response:
“We have been, every John Q. and Jane Q. Public, one of us, as ‘suspects’, with the inception of the Military Commissions Act, and then with the very statements of Eric Holder and Janet Napolitano. WE have been identified as ‘enemies of the State’, should we of the Old Republic.

Therefore, no one who works for the U.S. government, is to be regarded as a friend, buddy, go-to-guy, golf buddy, or even ‘nice neighbor’. They, by the admissions of their Directors, are the enemies of Freedom.

I, and by saying this I admit it might cause a ‘dust-up’, would not waste one sniff of the nose, one ‘Oh Dear’ to be evoked by my lips, one shake of my head, should any misfortune, mishap, accident, or fatality, of any kind - natural or man-made - befall any of these individuals, to even include some, wild, crazy, human of some gender - bent or straight’s violence enacted upon one of these lumps of flesh.

They are Philistines, and so should be afforded ‘the same love of same of old.’

If you think fascist Germany was bad, you ain't seen nothing yet. Wait until the Beast rises from US.

We have surveillance, kill tech and delivery systems the Nazis could only have wet dreams and fantasies about, and for much of it they probably did the initial work.

We've now mapped the human genome, can dice and splice DNA...just think what "they" can create with GuvCo encouragement to build the best big stick to beat US with.

When they take our guns or any of our rights away, the world should take that as the final warning and prepare.

On the other hand, my guess is we will be stopped long before we get that far. I believe that those four girls of Garabandal were told will happen instead.

I'm still reading and trying to get my head around it and have a LOT of reading still to do, but I wonder if that prophecy is what some think of as the Rapture. Those girls are adults now and are well beloved by God, but even they are scared of what they were shown, of what's coming.

There's a reason the wealthiest ZIP codes in the United States are clustered around Washington DC. These 'government workers' are the equivalent of Chicago's unions. They back the 'winners' and the winners' give 'em more pay. Our elites will bankrupt the nation but the IRS will make sure elites are well funded while they're doing it.

Which “German Army’’? The one of WW1, WW2 or the modern German Army? If it's the Werhmact of WW2 I hope the IRS has a couple of panzer divisions. Them Krauts sure knew a thing or two about armored warfare.

Ted Cruz is on Michael Berry’s radio show talking about defunding Obamacare. He’s saying what we already know: Unless the public rises up to show GOP Senators that it would be “more risky for them to fund Obamacare than it would be to NOT fund it,” he and other conservative Senators just won’t get enough votes. He’s urging everyone to sign their petition and to call their state Senators, of course.

But what stands out to me every time i hear Cruz talking about something he’s trying to do is his frustration. He often seems to me to be downright pleading with conservatives to get off their keyboards and stand up and raise a ruckus (my words, not his) to get the RINO’s attention. They need to SEE us on the news carrying signs that personally call them out to do the right thing! I was hoping Berry would ask him his thoughts on the upcoming freeway overpass protests, but he didn’t.

I am fully convinced that our fast decline into Marxist tyranny will soon be complete, and the window for a peaceful reversal is very small. And judging from the intimidation seen already from the NSA spying, it may already be too late.

Everyone reading this should decide RIGHT NOW whether you’ll be the person who rose up in peaceful protest to prevent the Communist coup, or if you’ll be one of the cowards who hid behind your keyboard and let your neighbor take the risk. And if the risk-takers fail for lack of people, what are you going to tell your grandkids? How will you rationalize not peacefully protesting back when you had a chance? When it wasn’t against the law? Back before a peaceful protest would get you arrested? The founder of this website marched on Washington from a wheelchair! < /rant /peptalk >

BTW, any Texan reading this needs to call RINO John Cornyn’s office every single day and call him out for taking his name off Cruz’s list. Unless we MAKE him, he’ll wimp out.

Fortunately for free Americans, the IRS has proven they can’t shoot straight.

What percentage of IRS employees are real men?

Capable of doing their own home or auto repairs?

Experienced hunters?

Experienced outdoorsman?

The IRS has its own SWAT team. ** It has its own intelligence unit. ** And it has more agents than the armies of Canada, Spain or Germany have soldiers......

Everyone can recall the stirring preamble to the Declaration of Independence: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights...” The entire American experiment in personal liberty is predicated upon them.

What’s often forgotten is what comes next: the bill of particulars against King George III that justified the colonial rebellion. And it’s helpful to recall how we got here — and what we must always be on guard against.

“He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people and eat out their substance,” reads one of Jefferson’s indictments against the king. Today, those words nicely cover big government, the intrusive leviathan state and its army of unelected regulators and unaccountable bureaucrats who really run the country.

=========================================================

Recent and still unfolding scandals involving the Internal Revenue Service (now hiring some 16,000 new agents to enforce ObamaCare’s mandate that everyone buy health insurance or pay a “tax” for noncompliance) show just how much we have to fear from politicized agents acting not on behalf of the nation but of the government.

Wow the German Army is 60,000 strong. That would be about the average Wehrmacht’s KIA every month on the Eastern Front.

Important point Liz - thanks for sharing.
