Well, even with a flat tax, the IRS wouldn't be going anywhere.

The IRS isn't the enemy. They are a necessary and legal part of our
government.

They may be legal but they're certainly not necessary, especailly their
Gestapo mentaility ("We're always right even when were wrong")


The enemy is Congress, who keeps passing absurdly more intricate and
inscrutable tax laws, which must then be incorporated and interpreted by
the
IRS.

Which plays the bully with such relish.


Congress is supposedly made up of our representatives, but I haven't seen
much evidence of that in my lifetime.

True enough but every time some Rep tries to reign in the IRS they get
stepped on.
