>THE IRS HAS A QUOTA SYSTEM
>Rep. Jim Traficant, House of Representatives - September 23, 1997
>
>Mr. Speaker, according to news reports, the IRS has a quota
>system. IRS agents got bonuses for ripping off taxpayers. And
>many times taxpayers settled their cases even though they were
>innocent.
>
>What is so shocking about all that? The American people have
>known this for years, and the American people have been telling
>us the IRS is incompetent, the IRS is arrogant, the IRS has
>abused their powers. It has gotten so bad the IRS is even above
>the law.
>
>That is right, in America the accuser has the burden of proof,
>but not in a civil tax case. The IRS accuses, the taxpayer must
>prove their case. Beam me up.
>
>Let me say this. There can be no true reform in American tax law
>without changing the burden of proof. It is time to handcuff them
>to a chain link fence and flog them with their own hefty Tax
>Code.
>
>I yield back their unauthorized seizures and excessive penalties.
