Our own private Gestapo.
There is an old joke about the size of bureaucracy. It goes like this:
A guy is in the Dept. of Agriculture building and he notices one of the bureaucrats at his desk crying.
Concerned, the guy asks another bureaucrat why the fellow is crying.
"He found out HIS FARMER just died."
This is humorous because it has truth in it.
It is also cautionary because of the excessive intrusive, arrogant and politicized nature of the worst bureaucracy of all, the IRS.
The IRS, in its determination to control every aspect of our lives and every dollar earned and how it is spent, will start to approach parity with all American Households as Obamacare rolls on. m/r

Obamacare Flashback: IRS "determining who to audit and who not to"

The IRS has found itself in a lot of hot water recently, but this isn't the first time the IRS has been called out for inappropriate actions.

The IRS has found itself in a lot of hot water in Washington this week largely due to a stunning report from the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA). But this isn’t the first time TIGTA has called out the IRS for inappropriate actions. On Wednesday, March 5, 2013, TIGTA official J. Russell George tesified before the House Appropriations Committee. As part of his exchange with lawmakers, Mr. George was asked about the tax implications of Obamacare.

As reported by POLITICO's Rachael Bade:

“It is unprecedented in recent history, the amount of responsibility the IRS is being given in an area that most people don’t think of as an IRS function,” George said. Americans, he added, will have more questions about their taxes because of health care penalties or credits, flooding already busy call-in and walk-in tax help centers. “This is going to lead to problems, sir.”
