I work for a government agency that audits things. We have in the last couple years got a lot of IRS refugees over in our agency. The stories they tell about understaffing, and funding cuts are frightening.
I looked at applying, but they keep shredding the agency, and even when they do hire, it’s provisional for a short period. It’s hard to get in because of all the cuts. No job stability there.
Why bother changing tax codes, when you can just defund the agency in charge of regulation and enforcement. This is exactly what some folks would like to happen.
