IRS audit of middle class

 Red States:

David and Deborah Hajda are Texas cattle ranchers, and they gave a stark warning to Americans, especially the middle class, following the Democrats’ bill that would add $80 billion in IRS funding.

On Tuesday, they told Fox News host Dana Perino on “America’s Newsroom” that they experienced a tax audit 13 years ago. Deborah said:

“We got audited over basically a $7,800 engine rebuild on a very old tractor.”

Deborah added:

“They just basically said this was a red flag, and we’re going to audit you, and we’re coming to your house,”

Just the thought of this should concern every American because the IRS can and will audit anybody they want. It is not just for the billionaires, as some Democrats claim. The Hajda’s are not billionaires, they are hard-working Americans, and they were audited. Although this happened 13 years ago, it can happen today, too, especially given the Democrats’ legislation that adds $80 billion in IRS funding.

Deborah continued:

“I took out our box of receipts… and we handed it to him, and I said ‘Here’s your receipts’ … we weren’t hiding anything.”

Perino asked if the IRS agent simply wanted them to fill out a quota.

Deborah responded:

“Probably. They said they flagged it because our expenses were high that year, and it was because of this repair,”

The Hajda’s continued, saying they could not afford to get a new tractor, and they kept all the records of expenses for repairs needed. But that was not a good enough explanation for the auditor.

David said:

“He wasn’t satisfied. He kept digging, and he ended up nailing us. Our tax person was giving us 80% on our work vehicles, and he said you can only do 50%.”

... 

The Hadja's obviously are not billionaires.  It should also be noted that there are not enough billionaires or millionaires to fill up the time of Biden's new glut of IRS agents.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t
