Bullied by the IRS

I’ve always paid my taxes and have never been arrested or charged with any crime in my life. I am a successful small-business man. But in January of this year, I woke up to find that my business’ entire bank account — more than $35,000 — had been wrongly seized.

Later that same day, I was writing checks to my vendors. A federal agent strolls in. She tells me my hard-earned cash was taken by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). I was shocked. I’ve broken no law, committed no crime and was never warned my store could be in trouble. I asked her how I can keep managing my business when my account has been seized. She responded, “I don’t care.”

The current administration is marxist. In their world view, all the means of production should be in the hands of the government. They bitterly resent that anyone can own a business and actually make a profit. They want the money.

When all the means of production are in the hands of the government, then we’re Cuba, Venezuela, the Soviet Union, and poor.

Marxism presents that fake front, that "means of production is in the hands of the government".

In fact, all communist governments have always required FINANCING.

This financing is always provided by the major international banks.

Communist and other totalitarian governments are always a proxy slave-master that maintains the slavery grip on "the masses" on behalf of wealthy elites.

The idea of the communist government having no financiers behind it is a mirage.

...to leave billions on the table, but also attacks any citizen who kept cash for any conceivable emergency.

IF that becomes a law, there is a solution, although time consuming, over time take your old 100 dollar bills to buy small item merchandise all over town, return the balance back to your ‘mattress’ until you no more 100’s.

THEN when you NEED to make bank deposits to your bank, there are no ‘red flags’.

Of course if you think this will become a law, one has to start now before merchants are ordered not to accept your old 100’s.

They do it because they get to keep the seized money. Generally speaking, it will get divvied up between the prosecutor’s office and the reporting agency office and added to their operating budget. Individual agents may also get a bonus or it is used to bump their employment record and qualify them for higher ratings (= higher pay).

Somebody at the bank (a teller or manager) also reported them and received a “reward” for doing so.

This is happening to small businesses all over the US that receive significant cash payments that must be deposited frequently.

You can thank our dimwitted Congress and the War On Drugs for this unconstitutional institutionalized theft.

They should have shot Wickard, and sent Philburn to Congress.

I don’t know if bit coins would help much, since they are becoming darn near illegal.
The IRS’ defense is to tell everyone to stop using cash and rely on debit and credit cards instead of so much cash.

The NSA now has this in your file. If SWAT raids your home by mistake, they will quote you in their justification.

[holden]

Just as with NSA, all the data are kept in perpetuity, so even if the gubmint only in the future decides to track something “unforeseen” about you (for your trial, intimidation or questioning), they can dredge up the full original source data. So these arbitrary, (e.g., $10k) boundaries are merely the current whimsy, announced only in attempts to affect our behaviors, cowing us into submissive postures.

No one: that’s the problem.

“The IRS’ defense is to tell everyone to stop using cash and rely on debit and credit cards instead of so much cash.”

That way they can steal your money with one keystroke. Cyprus, Poland here we come.

If you burn down an Embassy and you’re important they’ll appoint your own employees to Review Accountability for the matter and then you’ll get in no trouble AT ALL:

NO ONE will lose their job, not even after a year.

You blamed and imprisoned some innocent guy in isolation for a year? That’s OK also.

But if the IRS decides you’re guilty of something then YOU ARE GUILTY, just like that. “Deem and pass”, legally speaking.

You’re a baseball player who took GH?

Sure, you’re guilty and you’ll be under the kleig lights up on Capitol Hill for...hmmm...maybe a year.

You’ll get in MUCH deeper trouble than had you smuggled machine-guns to narco Kingpins and killed 300 Mexicans and some cops.

I’ve been bullied by them as well wrt an Offer In Compromise that took 10 years and a ton of paperwork to get a No.

Im certain The Lois Lerner Gangs reach extends well beyond the Tax Exempt filings area.

Just a few years ago I was called a traitor and worse for saying similar things on FR, I doubt that anyone will challenge you now. Anyone who might is simply hopelessly out of touch with reality.
