[Why does the IRS have such great power? ]

[This matter still has to start from the establishment of the IRS. ]

[The origin of the IRS can be traced back to the American Civil War. ]

[At that time, the North and South of the United States fought very fiercely. ]

[This made the military expenditure very tight. ]

[The then President Lincoln saw that this decision was not feasible. How could he fight a war without money...]

[Weapons and equipment, soldiers' food and pensions, all aspects require money. ]

[So, he could only quickly ask the tax department to speed up the efficiency of tax collection. ]

[So that it could be used to subsidize military expenditure. ]

[This made it difficult for the tax collectors. ]

[They complained to the president, saying that it was not that they did not want to collect taxes, but that they simply could not collect them! 】

[This is easy to understand. Since the founding of the United States, every citizen has a gun. 】

[When the IRS collects taxes, they often encounter situations where Americans do not cooperate. 】

[Some people even resist taxes violently. 】

[The IRS staff went to the door to collect taxes. The door was opened, but a long-barreled shotgun was pointed at their foreheads. 】

[Taxes were naturally not collected. 】

[Lin Ken listened, this is too much! 】

[If I can't collect taxes, what can I use to fight? 】

[So, in 1862, the United States established a special department: the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). 】

[Then this department was given the power to "collect taxes with arms." 】

[Citizens have guns, and the weapons and equipment of the IRS are stronger! 】

【Taxes were finally collected. 】

【But it was precisely the right to collect taxes by force that led the IRS to develop the habit of taking action without nonsense, and to use force to force citizens to pay taxes if they disagreed. 】

【Moreover, the weapons level of the IRS is at the same level as the most advanced mountain division in the country! 】

【Whatever equipment the Army has, they have. 】

【And because the IRS is a department that collects money, it is not short of money at all, so it only buys the best equipment! 】

【So much so that there is a joke circulating in the United States: 】

【The largest armed organization in the entire United States is the Army, the second largest armed organization is the Coast Guard, and the third largest armed organization is the IRS. 】

【With such equipment configuration, the IRS has the power to kill the tyrants and the corrupt officials. 】

【From the president to the ordinary people, and even criminals, no one is not afraid of it. 】

【......】

"The emperor's special approval, execution first and report later! So the root of the problem lies here."

"For example, how can the IRS have its own army? It was difficult to collect taxes back then."

"What is this IRS? It was also a great contributor in the past. Without it, there would be no United States. It has such aPrivileges are not surprising. ”

“...”

The ancients suddenly realized.

Understand why the US IRS has such great power.

It turned out to be a great hero in the founding of the country!

Han Dynasty.

Liu Che narrowed his eyes.

“It’s because of this matter.”

He finally understood.

If the United States went to war at that time, it might not win without the IRS collecting money. (To read the exciting novels, go to Fulu Novel Network!)

As a hero, it is normal to have some privileges.

Besides, this “hero” can still collect money for the country, and it is not that he has power but does not do practical things.

If it were me, I would also be willing to retain the power of the IRS.

Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang was speechless.

It is true that the IRS is a contributor to the founding of the country, but a hundred years have passed, and the power should be taken back.

At the very least, the power to have an independent army should be taken back.

Otherwise, how can people feel at ease?

The IRS manages money and an army. Maybe one day they will be unhappy and directly rebel.

Zhu Yuanzhang does not understand the US's approach.

I suspect their president is too careless.

There is no sense of crisis.
