Dr. Ben Carson: After I Spoke Out Against Obamacare – I Was Audited by Obama IRS

Dr. Carason: I never had an audit until I spoke at the National Prayer Breakfast. And then all of the sudden they came in and said, "We just want to look at your real estate dealings." And then they didn't find anything. And then they took a look at the whole year. And they didn't find anything. And then they looked at the next year and they didn't find anything. And they won't find anything. The fact is the IRS is not honest and we have to get rid of them.

I made the mistake of making a sizable donation to Romney's campaign (I know but it was the general election and he was better than "O") I had been filing tax returns for over 50 years with no delays or problems... Suddenly, the next year my tax return took 8+ months to receive my refund, after numerous inquiries!!!

I'm sure it was just a coincidence (NOT)...

The IRS was used by the Obozo admin to exact revenge on Kathy Englebreck of True the Vote and her Tea Party organization here in the Houston area during the last presidential election cycle.

She testified before congress, it was documented and the IRS was caught red handed.

Lois Lerner did resign for targeting conservative groups, but no one was ever prosecuted for using the IRS as a tool to alter an American election.

Disgraceful. ABOLISH THE IRS!

I would make a comment on any of the post debate Trump or Carson IRS threads.....

But i’m afraid of being audited.

Its true!

The IRS is a political weapon.

I read a thread on last nights debate and it said he was asked if he would release his tax returns, and he said he couldn’t because he is in the middle of a multi-year audit.

I’m not sure why that would prevent him, but I don’t blame him for not wanting to release his taxes.

It just made me wonder if the audit is because he is running. Of course I’m sure they audit the rich more often than the avg joes.

One page form is all it takes to calculate the current graduated income tax once you know what you have made. The other 10-1000 pages are in calculating what you made after expenses, if you have any income outside of W-2 wages.

On the final point, no government debt, you are absolutely right.

However, it is 100 to 1 odds that the text of such a rule would include exemptions for war, and anything Congress deems to be similar-enough-to-war.

So, the law or constitutional amendment creating this rule needs to include a clause that anybody who votes for invoking the exemption is hung, drawn and quartered, along with their major political donors. If they want to sacrifice the grandkids on the gallows of debt, they should step up first.

You can't understand why it would be so hard for Trump to release his tax returns while in a multi year audit?? Do yours look like this? That is one year! Man some of these criticisms are so petty and shallow.

Lightweight losing candidate Mitt Romney asks about my tax returns. I have a store that is worth more than him.Posted by Donald J. Trump on Thursday, February 25, 2016

Yes.

THE IRS IS A CRIMINAL ORGANIZATION!

[DannyTN]

LOL, he does have a point when he says it’s ridiculous.

Having a tax return that big would make me want to be poor.

“I wonder if Trump’s current audit politically motivated.”

Stop wondering. Even if past audits weren’t we know the IRS does it now. Trump calling out for hussein’s birth credentials guaranteed audits.
