Hopefully some of it will be caught by the IRS now that they're finally at least close to being adequately funded -- assuming the "conservatives" don't succeed in their fight against reduced deficits and tough-on-crime policies.
- 93po 4y agoHate it break it to you, but the funding for the IRS consistently fell through Obama's entire tenure and was at least 20% lower when he left office than when he started, including the years that dems controlled both house and senate. Conservatives suck but don't buy into the narrative that they're the only shitty people.
- dpkirchner 4y agoObama is pretty dang conservative, but setting that aside, the funding for the IRS is set by Congress. I've seen no sign that the democrats reduced the IRS budget while they held power, but I'll admit I may have overlooked it. In any case, today, there's only one party opposed to the recent funding increase, and it's the party that proudly claims to be the most anti-crime and anti-deficit folks in congress. Those are the facts today. This absolutely makes them the shittier people.
