Yes, that is true. But if the IRS doesn’t exist, how are they going to audit me?
I’m not telling anyone to commit tax fraud. But I’m also saying that enforcement might be lacking.
everything doge is doing will result in higher cost for the government and bringing in less money.

The point of the Ministry of Efficiency is not about saving any money.
That’s the point!
