They're foaming from their mouths over this because the GOP hates an actually efficient federal government (even though they supposedly hate red tape in bureaucracies so much) and can't think of much else to fear-monger about in the IRA.

Hopefully they won't go after the most notorious tax evader of them all: Yoshi

He's supposedly speaking at CPAC. They don't even care that he's friends with a trans person.

It wasn't too long ago when Democrats were weaponizing the IRS to specifically target Tea Party members. Now they want 87,000 more agents. As has been seen countless times, if something can be used to harass political rivals, Democrats will use it.

I've owned a small business. My first year, I foolishly thought I could do my own taxes. The problem is that the tax code, particularly for businesses, is so vague and difficult to understand that even the most well-intentioned CPA with years of experience can make a mistake, and that mistake can cost small businesses owners thousands in attorney fees alone. An audit is a brutal and expensive process. If you've never filed taxes for anything other than yourself, you know nothing about business taxes and should probably get off your soap box until you know what you're talking about.

I haven't heard that one in awhile. I'm sure you don't care, but that's been long-debunked.
