The IRS isn't limited by raw money. It does not have the authority to hire whomever it wants, to invest money in whatever it wants, or to set its own salary levels. That all requires approval by Congress. I wouldn't say that a lack of communication between the IRS and Congress is a sign of "bureaucratic incompetence".
