Move the IRS HQ to Buffalo, NY.

They can flip burgers for all I care

Right.

So make sure you cheat on your taxes, because there won't be anyone to check your work!

Just hire Joe Biden's tax attorney. I'm sure he or she can hide money very well.

Eliminate the Federal Income Tax, let the States pay their ratable portion of the budget based upon their EV

Wow, that was stupid, even for you.

Couldn't think of a faster way to crash the economy than raising the sales tax to 20% (which is what you would need to do to match revenue levels the income tax generates.)

Sounds like you're talking about the "flat tax"...

I'm on board. When can we start having the freeloaders pay their fair share???

These are the 88,000 unnecessary armed IRS agents that Sleepy Joe just hired to harass the people.

Did you miss the "eliminate Income tax"?

Does that not translate into Mandarin??

 

[Polishprince]

Right.

Perhaps you are unfamiliar with the idea of computers? That's what compares the amount on your return with what the source of your income reports.

Not some dork at the IRS.

Nope, the rich should pay their fair share.

Our country worked much better when they did.

Did you miss the "eliminate Income tax"?

No, I didn't miss it, I just pointed out why it was stupid.

Let's say that you replace the income tax with a sales tax. Well, here's the thing. Sales taxes are completely optional. Don't want to pay the tax, don't buy stuff. Maybe get an extra few years out of that old TV instead of buying the new one. Maybe buy the off-brand food product instead of the name brand one.

This would have two effects.

1) Revenues would still go down.
2) Manufacturing and retail would be hit because people would buy less stuff.

Why do you think that's a better thing? A computer can't make a judgement about why your deduction doesn't look kosher, it will just run the numbers.

Do you really want decisions about your life being made by a machine? I don't.

 

[sparky]

You folks do realize the illegals here aren't paying taxes, right? ~S~

If Biden's IRS agents were cracking down on Illegals, domestic street gangs and others who don't pay, I'd think otherwise.

But that's not the case, they are just harassing lawabiders over arithmetic errors on live 78b of schedule H-4.

Maybe the 88000 can be work on collecting taxes from illegals deported to Krapistan or Haiti, making sure they pay on the taxes they incurred during their illegal stay here?

Again, did you not understand the point.

Income tax is gone, I can avoid paying taxes by simply not buying stuff, or buying produce at a flea market or a roadside stand.

the reason why the income tax is effective at collecting revenues is because you have to actually pay them and account for them.

Odd that our country worked well without an Income Tax until basically the last 70 years
