    Better get your records in order because they will have to justify this stupid expenditure somehow. If I get audited, they will probably find out I owe a buck ninety eight but with penalties and interest it'll probably be $1000. 😮 Bob

    They are going to go after pass-through businesses. Small business owners are going to have to spend endless hours and thousands of dollars pacifying these goons, who are going to be compelled to collect enough to pay for the $ 87 billion.

    It is more evidence of the assault on the Middle Class by the Communist Left in this country. The federal government can control the wealthy with their own money, and can control the poor by doling out money. The middle class, unbeholden to government cannot be controlled so easily.

    It is another step on the path to the planned destruction of the freedom and liberty that once was the US of A.

    There will be pudding.

    Freedom and a submissive populace cannot co-exist.

    Less than 30,000 agents controlling the border. But there will be over 5 times that many keeping track of you and me.

    We have entered the hinterland...............on the verge of becoming a true banana republic.

    In a banana republic, when the lefties take over, the first thing they do, besides ensuring their own financial gain, is to throw the opposition in jail..........

    look what happened yesterday at Mar-A-Lago...................they are trying.

    Remember the threads on millions of rounds of ammo being purchased by the IRS? I think that at least 10,000 of those agents will be door kicking storm troopers, weaponized literally, for the purposes of getting certain people into compliance.

    Yep this is what the DEMOCRATS want: Abject oppression & total control of peoples lives. Make one wonder how long we will be free.

    It seems that it would be very hard for the IRS to even break even with such expenditures.


    Goes to show you that they are willing to go in the hole with our tax money just to add another anchor around the necks of small business owners who already struggle enough these days!


    Heck! If it were up to me, I would implement a percentage tax to ALL and then totally disband the IRS!

    100K a year is a little light.....I would bet it is higher than that.....

    Having been a goobermint employee, I'd bet the opposite. Most of those new hires will be lucky to get $50k/year.

    It is still a whopping amount of money added to the already grossly excessive fed budget.

    I may be a bit crazy - but I didn't drive myself.

    Iffin I had the power the IRS would be abolished and a straight sales tax would be implemented.

    Rich pay a rich tax, middle class a middle tax, poor would pay a poor tax. No deductions or loop holes.

    Tax rate would be much much less than it is now.

    Where would they find 87000 workers? Local places cant even find waitresses . Well maybe sleepy joe wants to hire 87000 illegal immigrants.
