Hearing groans,
then crickets
When it comes to the conservatives and the 86,000 IRS agents that they seem to think will be immediately hired, they are wrong. Those 86,000 IRS agents are going to replace the IRS agents who will either retire or leave in the next 10 years. And for people like the author of the letter published on Saturday, Jan. 28, they will not all be carrying guns, only 2-3% of them will. Seems that the GOP love to put out misinformation about everything, yet when fact checked by numerous sources like the IRS themselves and by other government agencies, they go silent -- wow, must be nice to be
know-it-alls.
Funny, isn't it, that when it comes to the national debt, which was also mentioned in the letter published on Jan. 23, that Conservatives and the GOP moan and groan about it when comes to a Democratic president, yet when it comes to a Republican president like Trump, who raised the national debt by $1.3 trillion and is responsible for at least 30% of the national debt. all we heard were crickets. Why is that? Could it be due to the tax reform, i.e. the tax scam? He gave the rich even more money than they actually can spend in a lifetime, or is it because they are just hypocrites? A tax scam, by the way, that had no way to pay for it except to attack Medicaid and Social Security, which the present leaders of the House want to do, meaning that they want to take money out of the pockets of the needy and senior citizens who have nothing else to live on except for Social Security, and no other healthcare insurance other that Medicaid. And that was out of their own mouths. Maybe the author of the letter that was published on Jan. 28 can tell us without resorting to, as he always does, disrespecting the author of this letter.
