    Because Enshitification is the real goal. Cutting the IRS staff is going to cost the government even more money. I don’t know if the reason for systematically degrading the quality of government is simply Treason Trump taking his orders from War Criminal Putin, or if Convicted Sex Offender Trump is taking personal delight in being a malevolent sociopath.

      Seems like you guys should organize a “don’t pay your income tax” movement. Everything is in such disarray, would they even be able to chase you down?

        At almost all jobs income tax is taken out by the employer and paid to the government before the worker sees a dime. There is no ly a little bit anyone can do by filing alternate tax witholding documents with their employer.
