The IRS has collected $1 billion in back taxes from high-wealth tax cheats — a milestone meant to showcase how the agency is making use of the money it received as part of the Biden administration’s signature climate, health care and tax package signed into law in 2022.
You sound like my management. Hey, we gave you some money yesterday, why isn’t the 10-year-long project done today?
These things ramp up. Modernization takes time. We won’t see the true benefits until 80% of the way through the process.
To be honest, I bet they targeted this one billion just to show some progress. It’s probably not even related to the actual modernization efforts they’re going through. But if they didn’t show some progress, idiots would cut their funding because, like my management and old man dick, political funding has no staying power.
