Republicans condemn 87,000 IRS agents who don’t (and won’t) exist

One of fascism's main goals is the elimination of civil servants who can be nonbiased. The fascist dictator moves to eliminate all opposing power that can be employed in the cause of democracy.

That's a fact and there's little doubt it's touched a lot of extreme rightist nerves by now.
This is one of those threads that the extreme rightists would prefer to ignore, but find that impossible.
Keep the cards and letters coming you little vermin!

Wow, you are AMAZINGLY ignorant of political theory, and historical fact.

What alternate reality do you come from?

Not until they lock me up, you NAZI asshole.

Is your pussy as big as your mouth?

Did that strike a nerve?

You whine like a bitch.

My posts are really getting under your skin, are they?

I think it's the other way around.

I think it's the other way around.

Hmmmm, no. But I do find dumbasses like you irritating.

I had a meme pop up in my facebook feed criticizing the hiring of 87,000 IRS employees and of course facebook put their "missing context" tag on it so I said, what the hell, and clicked on it. The way the guy who wrote the article explains it, these people will be hired over the course of a certain number of years (I forget how many) and will be filling all sorts of positions. Apparently the IRS right now has an unusually high number of people ready to retire and other concerns.

Assuming for a minute that this is true, why are IRS employees who retire or quit or whatever not replaced as a matter of course as these things come up? In other words, why do they need a Congressional bill for something like this?

Republicans are so outraged by renewed efforts to enforce existing tax laws, they're telling some rather brazen lies about the Inflation Reduction Act.

An idle threat by the extreme right in America?
Or an undisguised threat of a turn to fascism?

Indications are that it's the latter, and there's little resistance to it on account of it being seen as acceptable now in America's political climate. Will the FBI and DOJ be able to stop it in its tracks before it's too late? Comments?

The article doesn’t refute that the IRS will hire 87,000 people. They simply try to downplay it by saying that some of those positions will be other staff like IT technicians as opposed to them being all Audit Agents. LOL

Thanks for playing.

Bingo. They don’t. Any government position is funded and as soon as someone transfers out or retires, they automatically have the funds to hire a new position. Only if the position is eliminated would that not happen.

Replacing them wouldn't require any additional money since the same number of people would still be employed. The "explanation" was obviously a pile of horseshit.

Are you blind. That is exactly what the democrats have been doing in this country for the past decade and they are continuing as I type, duck. Remember, All communists are fascists, but all fascists are not necessarily communists. All socialists are communists in waiting. You can thank me for educating you on who you are later.

Bingo. They don’t. Any government position is funded and as soon as someone transfers out or retires, they automatically have the funds to hire a new position. Only if the position is eliminated would that not happen.

That is why the traditional governmental department mantra is "Use it or lose it. The moneys that are allotted will return the next year unless you show that it wasn't enough. They figure the taxpayers won't notice.

Civil servants that can be non-bias? Is that what we are seeing with this Mar-A-Lago raid? Is that what we seen after Comey read off a list of crimes by Hillary and then recommended that she not be prosecuted, and then she ran for President? Is that what happened when Hunter lied on a federal firearms application to purchase a gun and never got a slap on the hand yet alone a fine or jail time? Is unbiased what happened when people violated federal law by protesting in front of the homes of Supreme Cort justices and Garland never lifted a finger to stop or have any of these people arrested? Is that why people who were trespassing in the Capital on January 6th still in jail with no right to see a judge yet alone get bail set while the now VP was helping to arrange funds to bail out rioters all across the country?

Well you know what, we're about sick of the unbiased civil servants these days. .

Don’t “fascists” champion the suppression of free speech, don’t they collude with a complicit media, don’t they force people to take medicine they don’t want, don’t they force people to wear face diapers, don’t they oppose the peoples rights granted by our founders?
Are you sure you know what fascism is?

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

I'm clearly saying to those with a clear mind that the elimination of civil servants is consistent with the tenets of fascism.

See my OP for the question of whether or not you agree that's what is happening in America.

If that's fascism, what's the word for wanting to eliminate police officers via de-funding?
