Going after people who felt they could function as 'enforcers' for one political party is NOT the same as saying someone has the right to do away with the IRS. Those are two different issues.
If we want to do away with the IRS - and replace them with a flat tax - it would have to be done according to law. And even after that there has to be an organization that collects and manages the 'flat tax'... Most people in the IRS - like most people in the FBI are good law biding Americans. They can do the job. Getting rid of bad apples like Lois Lerner is happening. Have faith in the system...sometimes it works.
Ya don't say! Bill Clinton used the IRS routinely to squelch the voices of woman attempting to tell their stories.
Jaunita Broadrick, Paula Jones, Jennifer Flowers were all audited to name a few. Oh, just an aside. Eric Holder was the deputy atty general through this time. Tell ya anything?
Ol Billy's still walking around outside a jail cell. Long gone are the day's of accountability.
“...do away with the IRS - and replace them with a flat tax...”

The flat tax would not abolish the IRS; but a national sales tax would.
