If there has been a 17% reduction overall in the IRS workforce since 2010....... and over the next 5 years the IRS expects 50,000 - 80,000 more of the current IRS workforce to retire............. are the 87,000 they plan to bring in actually "adding" any agents to the agency?

Not sure where you're going with that math but their future workforce will be more or less the same as their previous workforce. Saying that they're going to "add 87,000 employees" is like saying President Biden "added millions of jobs" in 2021.

I assume they won't all be armed....just the ones going to Maralago.
;P

I WANT YOU TO PAY YOUR TAXES | made w/ Imgflip meme maker
Not trying to be snarky, but were there really a half a million IRS agents in 2010? I don't know, but that seems a little steep...and 5 million rounds of ammunition. Just how big is Mar A Lago? :-)

No, I don't think there were half a million in 2010. I think you're misinterpreting what I wrote.

According to John Koskinen, former IRS commissioner, there were ~ 100,000 IRS employees when he first started working there. I don't know if that was in 2010 but if it was, 17% of 100,000 would be 17,000 less employees than when he started.

17,000 still would be pretty far from 87,000 ...however.... apparently the majority of the people still at the IRS are at or near retirement age. So they expect basically the entire workforce to be leaving in the coming years.

Also..... based on the fact that the IRS was only able to answer the phones 11% of the time in 2021, I would tend to think they are currently understaffed.

Not sure about 5 million rounds of ammo (?)

Yeah, I didn't take into consideration the retiring employees (you can blame that on the beer (just don't try to take it)), but that still seems steep.

The best I can find is that The IRS recently added $700,000 worth of ammunition to their stockpile of 5 million rounds. I guess the point of the meme was have they done the same for the border patrol?

Nope. IRS doesnot fund for anyone.

Now stop being an SJW and get yourself educated.

IRS collects the taxes that fund everything federal, including the US CBP, which is allocated roughly $4 billion per year.
