Biden Wants IRS to Monitor All Bank Accounts [semi-satire]
Semi-News/Semi-Satire ^ | 19 September 2021 | John Semmens

Posted on 09/18/2021 11:32:38 AM PDT by John Semmens

President Biden is asking Congress to appropriate $80 billion dollars to fund the expansion of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to enable it to continuously monitor all bank accounts.

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said "governing the country would be easier if we had a more thorough knowledge of what everyone was doing with their money. How much are they spending? What are they buying? Who are they paying? Where does their money come from?"

"It may be that a significant portion of this money is being wasted on foolish self-indulgence," Yellen speculated. "By getting more information we could devise ways of redirecting this money toward more socially beneficial purposes. For example, a lot of parents accumulate money to pay for their children's education. A lot of others don't. If we want equity this has to change. The government is the one that should decide who gets how much education. There is no need for this to be a parent's concern and no need to allow them to hoard money to be used solely for the benefit of their own children."

"If there's one thing that President Biden is determined to eradicate it is selfishness," Yellen said. "Once the IRS has compiled a complete dossier on everyone's financial dealings and status we can redistribute funds that are not being spent in socially desirable ways into supporting needed government programs. We can put each person into his or her proper role in the ship-of-state. Some will be assigned to man the oars. Others will call out the strokes, and the needy will be given passage to the promised land."

Why stop there? Why not have government auditors automatically deduct from everyone’s bank account what they calculate should be deducted? No need for complicated tax forms. And besides, what could possibly go wrong?

Has the IRS looked into “10% for the Big Guy?”

Did you just immigrate to this country? Congress, the Executive branch employees and their families are always exempted from their legislation.

Social Security, covid mandates, etc. Obamacare

Of course he can’t do this...it’s called illegal search and seizure defined as:

An unreasonable search and seizure is a search and seizure by a law enforcement officer without a search warrant and without probable cause to believe that evidence of a crime is present.

Search and seizure cannot be used for discovery, only if there is a crime.

And some will be instructed to drill holes down through the hull. General Milley says this will permit water to drain out.

We could help with a few names to start, but I presume this is aimed at the present middle class.

I read on that they want to hire 83,000 new agents. I guess they just have to provide them with useful work if they hire that many.
