What's scary is the 34% that rated them excellent/good.

Commentary: Abolish the IRS
The American public has long held an unfavorable view of the Internal Revenue Service, as evidenced by several historical surveys. A Gallup poll taken more than 25 years ago in October 1997 found that 69 percent of the American public held the opinion that the IRS “frequently abuse[d] its powers.” Fast forward to October 2022, when another Gallup poll was taken on the American public’s job-performance rating of 11 federal agencies. The poll ranked the IRS dead last, with only 34 percent of Americans regarding the job performance of the IRS as “excellent/good.”

The 34 percent work for or are related to folks who work for the IRS.
ReplyDeleteThey are tax consumers.
DeleteI was thinking that 34% is kinda a low percent for stupid fucking population.
DeleteThat 34% are the ones who can take advantage of all the loopholes.
DeleteHow does anyone feel about the ATF

Less than 50% of Americans pay any Federal tax (excepting SSA) so nobody much cares. But a VAT, or a flat tax, could eliminate 90% of the IRS employees. (govt. tax eaters) Lots of money (HRBlock) would do all they could to prevent that.
ReplyDeleteA government of the lawyers, by the lawyers, for the lawyers, shall not perish from the US without bloodshed.
VATs (essentially a tax on EVERYTHING you buy) are a big reason it's literally twice as expensive to exist in countries that have them compared to the US. Best of luck selling that pipe dream. The accounts still won't keep track of themselves either.
DeleteThat 34% are probably tax feeders.
ReplyDeleteI have that feeling about every survey involving Biden or the government. Who is it who makes up the thirty percent?
ReplyDeleteCommie dirtbags.
DeleteA VAT is not politically possible because it's too hard to modify the tax code to benefit select people. Then, all the contributions to the politicians will dry up. Today's winners will refuse to become tomorrow's proletariats.
ReplyDeleteAnd the ATF
ReplyDeleteAbolish the IRS and bring back protective tariffs on imported goods. Brings back industry. How do you think the government funded itself before the income tax that was only passed in the twentieth century?
ReplyDeleteAmerica: Freedom to Fascism Explains it all.
ReplyDeleteMost of that 34% are those that don’t work and pay taxes, but file and get a hefty “refund” every year!
