do you guys care if we lose the IRS ??

[koshergrl]

We need a government organization able to collect taxes...So I find it down right stupid to abolish the irs.

It would end up costing a lot more.

No it wouldn't. Fuck the IRS and get rid of them. All they are is thugs for the admin and we don't need them.

If we get rid of the IRS, how will the Democrats follow in the footsteps of Nixon and use the agency to punish their enemies?

Shitcan it. Flat tax.

Only mental flatliners embrace something as stupid as a flat tax.

Everyone pays the same percentage. What a concept.

Much more intelligent to make the system overly complicated.

And why should the rich that use more of our resources from roads, bridge, police and government regulations pay the same as someone that uses far less?

The rich funded building the roads and bridges fool, you should pay us a toll to use them or at least send us a thank you card.

I didn't know you fork lift operators were in the 1% income category.

That makes it a regressive taxation system. Obviously you haven't studied any math.

Your hatred of my wealth is noted, and frankly expected.

Your great wealth was probably gained in part by working many hours with premium time after 40 hours work down at the plant. Overtime pay is a socialist program given you FDR.

No, not really. Do tell how the IRS has resulted in a single positive thing...aside from pensions for soulless accountant sociopaths.

If you are going to have taxes, someone will have to collect. "A vote for me is a vote for laying off 80 thousand full time employees" doesn't make a good campaign slogan unless you are Senators Paul and Cruz.

Anyone who wants to abolish the IRS needs a fifth grade education.

Anyone who believes that 75,000 pages of tax law and an independent police agency with the power of life and death create a desirable American situation has obviously been raised in a public school system designed solely to indoctrinate its students into the glory and wonder of imaginary Socialist utopias.

Remember, all things are cumulative. Americans will go feral if we remain on the current path.
