I reject that premise and think that your mention of that IRS scandal is actually an example of how the IRS has been hobbled in their investigations of the ultra rich, who use BS non-profit schemes to avoid taxation AND use those vehicles to generate more power and lobbying to their advantage. As an example Koch s were big in that saga. their few tens of millions spent through shady non-profits has generated billions for them from the Trump tax cuts alone. Hell that right wing movement changed the judicial enough so that those once shady hidden politics non-profit schemes became legal. The IRS used a spreadsheet of keywords to pick out targets for further scrutiny. Both Republican hits like 'tea party' & liberal ones like the at the time liberal 'boogey people' ACORN. [1] Republicans at the time were innovators in those org structures so there were more of them. Higher ups in Obama admin didn't put out some edict to bureaucrats in the IRS to attack Republicans. I do agree that IRS and lots of government has too much executive control. Congress should retake control and attach law to direct IRS to perhaps automatically spend % of budget on .01% earner audits. or ban 'auto-audit' that contributes to those big unequal IRS stats because they can automatically harass poor people about EITC or child credits. https://www.treasury.gov/tigta/auditreports/2017reports/201710054fr.pdf https://www.treasury.gov/tigta/auditreports/2017reports/2017...
