‘HELLUVA pitch’! Elizabeth Warren encourages Biden to throw $100 billion bone to ‘starved’ IRS

Senator Elizabeth Warren is all for it, except she thinks the amount of money should be even greater:

Republicans have starved the IRS so it can't go after wealthy tax cheats. I’ve called for a $100 billion investment to rebuild and strengthen the IRS in my #WealthTax bill – this $80 billion announcement from President Biden is a good first step. https://t.co/bzp68cTNtu

Nothing says “progressive of the people” like rushing to the defense of the… IRS?

Hiring more agents to go after people who hire the best tax lawyers is absolutely moronic. What will happen is that these agents will find nothing on the rich and then target the tax payer who can’t afford a high priced tax consultant. Nice job Liz ?@IamSean90 https://t.co/V7SQd17I9J

They won’t go after the high earners. They will go after the people too poor to afford a lawyer https://t.co/K0bn4k1c5l

Warren didn’t mention that part, and Republicans should be pointing it out.

“Vote for us so we can use more of your money to expand our power to take even more of your money!” is a HELLUVA pitch, guys. https://t.co/0DekeAWHGE

Someone please remind @SenWarren that higher taxes on the wealthy won’t come out of their personal expenditures, but out of their investment capital. This will mean less investment, fewer jobs, less production, higher prices, and lower standard of living for all of us. #economy https://t.co/JCQFPNCcww

There’s reality, and then there’s what Democrats say (which the media parrots). Then the economic downside will be blamed on Republicans.
