Bipartisan investigation cites management flaws at IRS

"dysfunctional culture"? No, I think the correct wording is "criminal". Yet, after all the hue and cry is over, we will go back to business as usual. The nature of the looting machine. Not only do we take your money, we will make you miserable while we are doing it. And then we will retire on your dime too, just to add insult to injury. Bah....Scott said it in the debate chain: "Time to move".

I doubt we will go back to business as usual. It will become worse.

We know from Lerner's own emails (aside from the ones they are hiding) that she was politically motivated. You know it's getting worse when government whitewashes now take the form of finding "gross mismanagement" to hide the rest.

Here are links to the full report and specific parts https://www.finance.senate.gov/newsro...

Sen. Hatch: "This bipartisan investigation shows gross mismanagement at the highest levels of the IRS and confirms an unacceptable truth: that the IRS is prone to abuse”.

  Thank you, sir, for the link. I just skimmed it, and need to go back and read it, but just the top level stuff screams that this was a serious abuse of the system, by the same people who were supposed to be uninvolved in anything but the determination. It should be a criminal indictment, not a report. You are correct, it will get worse, and the unwashed, brainwashed masses will keep wanting to watch Dancing With the Stars.......

    IRS will celebrate and reward itself by spending a few million on its own dancing as a sequel to its Star Trek buffoonery.

      That is so sadly true. I wonder how much they have done because "no one will find out". No honor or honesty left.

        The bureaucracy does typically reward its poor beleaguered own with raises and promotions when they are caught being abusive on behalf of the bureaucratic mission mentality. That is the "honor".

The very existence of the IRS is much worse than a 'management flaw'. The 'culture' is exactly what should be expected from any such agency.
nick, there isn't any place to move to. We must create Atlantis or be slaves.

  I can see why Ayn Rand came to her conclusions about what drives people and what is needed for a satisfying existence. Watching this nightmare on Elm Street theater called politics is like observing 2 hippos dancing in a mudhole: interesting, for a brief period, until you realize you will be stuck with the mess. The frustrating thing is to know we have spawned a couple generations of drones who care more about Dancing With the Stars than who is in the WH, or who is lying to whom today. So, they keep on getting worse and worse because no one is saying anything, except the small groups of "malcontents".
