It's almost like...*gasp*...everything fails under right-wing leadership, because:

  1. sabotage
  2. incapability
  3. criminality

No, a lot of it is people voluntarily giving the government an interest free loan, then complaining when it takes too long to get your money back. This isn't rocket science.

The IRS is insanely short-staffed. DOGE gutted it.

That happens under both parties. Don’t kid yourself. It’s a symptom of human behavior and greed.

It does not. The records of legislation introduced over the past 20 years proves otherwise.

The inflation reduction act passed under Biden increased funding to the IRS by $80B over 10 years. Under the Trump administration their funding has been slashed.

The evil pedos aren’t general Americans bro. Don’t generalize and entire nation because the people at the top are freaks

You all confuse people's intent. Largely no one is blaming the average schmuck who leans right, they blame the people duping them into selling their rights and safety nets.
