The IRS abuses prior to
Internal Revenue Service Restructuring and Reform Act of 1998 was fascist political violence and monarchical in its extortionist nature. Only progressives (globalist-communist scum) with their progressive tax values could defend them and want them back. Income tax should be a flat tax (say 15-17%) for everybody so that we can all have equal protection under the law. No child deductions or amortization of industrial equipment. None of that candy store shit rife for political corruption favors where billion dollar companies pay zero taxes.
That sound is the neurotic community flushing its goodwill into the septic tank thinking pictures of a toilet should be forged for no good reason but to sell little antifa red books. Filthy lucre scavengers unable to find a clean dollar.
There’s no point in arguing with “liberals” who enthusiastically supported more than doubling the Internal Revenue Service agency size and headcount. These people could scarcely be LESS liberal. They are fully state proxy agents. Their ongoing embrace of central government usurpation of EVERYTHING cannot be overstated. They even repeat, verbatim, the mantra their government heroes just uttered yesterday.
Imagine a liberal…of ANY stripe…from hippie to libertarian…stating with regard to state action, “If you haven’t done anything wrong you have nothing to worry about”. That is as FAR from liberal as one can get. It is its very opposite. And these guys - - NONE OF THESE GUYS - - even blink or pump the brakes. Not a single fellow Democrat and/or lefty in this forum has spoken out in opposition to such a notion.
Never mind the definitional delineation among contemporary liberal, classical liberal, 60s-80s liberals. These people are NONE of the above. They are nothing but agents of the state and party - with exactly ZERO adherence to even the most basic of liberal principles. It’s hard to believe what has become of these people…and even harder to believe that not a SINGLE ONE ever steps out of line to contest such a blatant, egregious violation of core things.
Direct, real-time participation - enthusiastically so - in their own subjugation and systemic ruination.
