If you are an American taxpayer, the idea that your political (or
other?) views could impact your taxes is pretty frightening. When you
consider the power to tax—which includes the power to destroy—the mere
suggestion of targeting is abhorrent. It’s one reason all the
denials–including President Obama’s ‘no smidgen of corruption’ remark to Fox News in February–inflame rather than quell debate.
First, there was no targeting by the IRS. Then there was, but only by those rogue IRS employees down in Cincinnati. Then, there was a spontaneous uprising from a youtube video (oops sorry, wrong lie
scandal). There was confusion about how to apply the tax law, but not
political, and not from above. Then, top IRS Official Lois Lerner
refused to testify.
IRS Commissioner Miller seemed defiant too and was sacked. Then, there was a year-long Congressional investigation before the IRS finally admitted the 2009-2011 Lois Lerner’s emails ‘disappeared.’ Then, the backups didn’t work were recycled. Then, the new IRS Commissioner said the IRS needs a bigger tech budget.
