Would you hire someone who had falsified documents or been convicted of theft? Probably not. But then again, you're not the IRS.

Just last week I listened to the top IRS director responsible for stopping fraud give a presentation during the IRS Tax Forum in Washington DC.. It is down by over 70%. And they are prosecuting many cases.

They have moved up filing deadlines for 1099s and employer w2s to monitor it even better.

Yet one more strong selling point to simplify the tax code to the following:

income: x
tax: x times 10%

No deductions, no credits, no using the tax code for social/economic engineering and political gain. No more GAAP; no accrual accounting. Everything posted on a cash (when received/when spent) basis.

Then have these girls find a real job.

There are a lot of people who would like to have a brief conversation with this guy to get a straight answer about why their return is still awaiting processing.

IRS has rehired disgraced employees

>http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2017/aug/21/irs-has-rehired-disgraced-employees/<

according to an inspector general’s report, the agency... has rehired 213 employees ‘who had falsified documents or been convicted of theft’, but also of dodging taxes and of making unauthorized use of taxpayer information...

I know of people still waiting for several thousand dollars from their 2014 return due to identity theft.

You would think, wouldn’t you, that with all the shit and corruption surrounding most everything the IRS does/touches/comments on, etc., etc., that the FAIRtax would be FRont and center on the Trump Administration’s To-Do list?

Help us replace the income tax with the FAIRtax and abolish the IRS!

Find out how to do that at https://www.fairtax.org

The USA will NEVER be a FRee country so long as we have an income tax and an IRS!

This is the deep state in action. When the spot light is off them, they resume their destructive methods.

After 2018 can it be passed via reconciliation?

I wouldn’t try it until we can primary out a few lame Rs.

I have no idea, Principled.

All I know is that we need to keep beating the drums for FAIRtax!
