It's called branding. Something the GOP is good at. The great part is, those that voted against it, voted against the "Inflation Reduction Act". So, to the ignorant masses, they are against reducing inflation. That's good politics.

Voters are not that stupid, pal.

They know this bill does nothing to decrease inflation. In fact, some are predicting it will INCREASE inflation.

So when inflation worsens, the GOP just says, "See - we told you so."

Shows where the Democrats' priorities are. And, they are NOT the priorities of the American people.

Why do you support tax cheaters?

Have you tried calling the IRS in the past three years? You sit on hold for an hour and then they cut you off. There is no way to follow-up when you get a dreaded "clarification letter" and in the meanwhile tax cheats are getting away with a collective BILLIONS of dollars.

Let's get something straight. They are more than doubling the size of the IRS. And, I will pretty much guarantee you that more employees will not improve service when you call them. And, yes, I have called the IRS - 2 years ago. Didn't wait long and I received a prompt answer to my question.
It is not about tax cheaters. When you receive notice of an IRS audit, the prudent thing to do is to contact an accountant/tax attorney to be an advocate or to be sure everything is in order. Big companies have these people on the payroll. The average American doesn't and many don't have the resources to pay for them. You could do everything right, and still have to pay thousands out of pocket because the IRS wants to scrutinize your tax return.

This is just a really poor way to spend tax payer's money. More border agents... yep. More police officers .... yep. Increased pay for military.... yep.

The priorities of this administration is just so out of touch with most Americans. And, I sincerely hope they suffer in the midterms and 2024 as a result of this bill and all the other crap they have (and haven't) done.

They are basically restoring the IRS employment levels to where it had been before it was gutted.

And most of those jobs are going to be in red states, so that should make you happy.

You need to provide a citation for this statement. And, a credible one - not some random twitter user who says it.
Because - I don't believe you.

Dp- I waited nine months for a refund, and could never get someone on the phone. It’s entirely too believable.

May be that is why RWNJs are so mad - for once Democrats got a branding right. They should have named Insulin cost and Inflation redux act...

Surely, you jest. Republicans are utter trash at branding. The left have had the branding thing on lock for a good while now. Look back at several of the larger bills to have passed through Congress in the past decade or two. Look at their names and note who pushed them. It wasn't the Republicans.

Sure, just like we all were going to benefit from the 2017 tax cut: https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2017/11/20/16674640/gop-tax-plan-lies

It doesn't have to convince everyone and the GOP is going to claim it's terrible whatever the policy is. It allows Dems to write attack ads that are technically true. Of course, it does lots of good things. I could care less if it does anything about inflation.

70+ million voters are morons. They voted for Trump.
The main thing I know about this bill is that the GOP refused to cap the price of insulin.

[Anonymous]

Where are all those people who were on here past couple of days saying that this bill literally increases tax on middle class people? I know you guys are over on the Trump thread freaking the F out about having consequences for your actions.

why not take a chill pill and point out to me exactly where the bill increases taxes on the middle class? Show me the language.

Not a single one of your sources indicates that the staffing at the IRS was EVER more than double it is now.

Again, the hiring is for over ten years. At no time will the size of the IRS be double what it is now. And people talking about the size of the IRS shrinking are using terms relevant to other factors, like population and/or the size of the economy.

Well the IRS pays for all those people so…

No. The tax payers do. The govt. does not generate money. It takes it from the people.

You profoundly do not understand how a business or a gov operates. You gotta get the money in the door first and foremost. There is ‘owing’ money and then there is ‘collecting’ money…and those are completely different things. But of course you don’t get this - you have never been in charge of anything important in your life and you think Trump was a successful business man.

Also, you reactively get defensive when people try to stop others who are cheating and lying. Bc you identify with them.

Pathetic.

I understand business quite well.
The government does not generate money. It gets its money from tax payers. So, anything funded by the govt. is funded by the people.
Period.

Without government, the people couldn't earn money in the first place. For starters, in the absence of government, there is no property; just stuff you're temporarily strong enough to possess.
