They are fine using other peoples money to pay for their bullshit. They are parasites on the ass of a society

So we agree…good job

I take rhetoric from all sources. That source is not what makes the words bad.

And not just any old rhetoric, but rhetoric used to rally the racist masses to kill certain groups of people.

So you’ve never uttered any of the words he used?

Wow, such a cutting retort

The one deleted was spam

Which means it was spam. Repeating sentences over and over does not mean the first one was bad, only the ones afterward that are useless, pointless, and spamming

"Poor kids are starving and Joe Biden and the left are doing nothing about it"....

True

"Printing money" is the answer

Sorry, but that argument doesn't work. I got into a conversation once and the idea is that the government can spend as much money as it wants with no consequences. liberals don't get basic economics.

I think we can all agree that the millionaires and above shall not pay any taxes! can i get an Amen?

Amen, to that! Let's leave those millionaire Job Creators like Elon Musk alone!

Let's go after those low income wage earners instead! There's a lot more of them to hassle with those 87,000 new IRS agents! We have Joe Biden's IRS to thank for this!

IRS Audits Few Millionaires But Targeted Many Low-Income Families in FY 2022

The taxpayer class with unbelievably high audit rates – five and a half times virtually everyone else – were low-income wage-earners taking the earned income tax credit. This credit is provided to offset the taxes for the lowest wage-earners in the country.

Eh..... about that "the 87,000 'new' IRS agents are harassing the poor" narrative.....

87,000 new IRS employees will be hired...of all types (not just auditors) ...

They will be hired over a decade.... (Not already)....

Meanwhile ~50,000 IRS agents are expected to leave or retire from the IRS within 6 years....

IRS current staff has already shrunk to 1970's levels.....

Our population since the 1970's has increased by 130 million ....

4,000 IRS agents have been recently hired....in the area of IRS Customer Service reps. And they plan to hire 1,000 more.... (Not sure if customer service reps also conduct audits)....

Low income wage earners have simpler taxes to audit compared to the more complicated taxes of rich people...... So if the IRS is hurting for employees, it would make sense that they'd be going after less rich people.

And the source you provided seems to support that^ basic idea.

"Severe budget cutbacks over the years meant that the IRS has examined fewer and fewer millionaire returns." Meanwhile the audits of the poor seem to have increased (at least compared to 2020.. however it's possible the relatively lower number in 2020 was due to covid stuff.. not sure)

So idk... I'm not sure there is really much to your initial premise. But to be fair, with this 87,000 over the upcoming decade, we might not even have any actual net gain of IRS employees. So if the status quo is currently harassing the poor more and the rich less due to relatively low staffing, it would seem that could continue.

You might be starting to catch on. $1000 extra taxes to a millionaire doesn't really affect their daily life, but $1000 extra taxes to a middle income family does affect their daily life. Even more so, to a lower income family. The 20% - 100% increase in food and gas prices is a latent tax that government has pushed through industry regulations, which is oppressing millions of lower and middle income American families.

Taxes. There's no confusion. We are not a poor nation.

We have plenty of money for the biggest military budget in the world. We can afford literally anything.

No general has ever said "sorry, we can't blow up that bridge today, it's not in the budget."

Somehow, we DO understand that when something needs to be done, we'll find whatever resources we need to make it happen.

If we can just care as much about building bridges as we do about blowing them up....

Taxes, aka "other people's money"

*shrugs* it's my money too. Goes towards the running costs of the country.

........yyyou.... DO care about your country? Don't you?

Not the way they waste it. It's like when you give your nephew $100 in the hopes they will start a savings account and instead they go blow it on a soda and some candy.

It depends on the idea, and who should be responsible for funding it

Next question?

In case you didn't know, the government does not have any money. They take their money from the people in form of taxes. So YOU are responsible for paying for all of the actions of the government, whether good or bad.
