Americans were shocked when democrats communists/globalists passed a bill calling for 87,000 new IRS agents.
The Obiden Regime claimed it was only to ensure “billionaires” paid their “fair share.” But many critics explained that the IRS does not need that many new agents to collect taxes, particularly from such a small group of people.
This from thepatriotjournal.com.
But what the IRS just did is even worse.
The IRS is hell-bent on ensuring The Regime’s socialist spending spree is funded. And that Americans are bilked out of every last penny.
Anyone who is having doubts about the above comments should be able to provide at least one answer:
[E]xplain why this tax-collecting agency needed to hire armed agents.
From Fox Business:
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is looking to hire special agents who carry guns and make arrests with jobs available in all 50 states, according to a posting on the agency’s website…
Under the posting’s ‘major duties’ section, the IRS says that special agents ‘[c]arry a firearm; must be prepared to protect him/herself or others from physical attacks at any time and without warning and use firearms in life-threatening situations; must be willing to use force up to and including the use of deadly force.’
This is troubling. Most IRS agents are simply glorified accountants. They are supposed to simply take your money and file refunds (if you are eligible for one). So, why is the agency trying to hire armed agents in all 50 states?
Part of the agency is the Criminal Investigation division. Sure, there are some people who break the law by refusing to pay their taxes. Tax fraud and tax evasion are real crimes (which Hunter Biden might be guilty of breaking).
But does the fact that some people might be committing these crimes require IRS agents to be packing heat?
If someone suspected of tax fraud poses a physical threat, why not call the police?
We have an entire government body dedicated to arresting criminals. Why isn’t the IRS relying on the DOJ or FBI to arrest these suspects? Why do we need IRS agents with the ability to “protect him/herself,” when all they are supposed to do is audit companies?
The job listings state that these agents will be able to use “deadly force.” Really? To collect taxes?
This is way beyond what any American would think is appropriate. But it’s par for the course for the Obiden Regime.
The Regime wants to expand the government [to the point] that every agency gets their own police force.
Final thought: ‘To protect and to serve’ may very well have become ‘To protect self and serve with deadly force.’
