These were not primary reasons to tax incomes.

The original reason was to fund essential service such as the military and protecting infrastructure, diplomatic relations and DOJ. Taking that definition would mean only DOD, DHS, DOJ, DOS, Intelligence and some NASA and HHS would be left.

With so many people fired at the IRS, odds are, you don’t really have to pay them. Seems like there will be no one to enforce the law. I felt a little bit like a sucker signing my return the other day.

This is the long run goal— destroy govt enough so it works for no one and then get in a cycle of cutting taxes and cutting govt services.

Trump’s rounds of golf are expensive and the rich need law enforcement to keep the peasants on their land.

Call your representative and ask them that, OP. Also, call other representatives such as the Speaker of the House and the Senate Majority Leader. They are the heads of Congress, they are responsible and answerable to all of us. Ask them why we should pay taxes if they are going to just dismantle the federal government that provides us services. What is the justification?

Taxes are for little people. The Kleptocracy wants more, more, more. They’ll never have enough.

Yup, if the GOP truly doesn’t want overreach, why don’t they put their money where there mouth is and eliminate federal taxes in DC. If all goes well, go from there. Bring it all back to the states.
