Any private business that operated in the manner of the IRS, would be raided by the FBI, all records confiscated, and doors locked.

How can you propose that for the most ‘open Administration in the History of Mankind’?

Lerner has already ‘resigned’ - guess that puts her out of reach and they probably figured out some scheme that will allow her full pension, immunity AND double benefits or such.

If there were any ‘justice’, ALL the key players, on BOTH sides of the aisle, starting at the ‘White Hut’ would be perp walked in full view and be tried in open for ‘crimes’ they have committed or allowed to be committed.
