About 125,000 notices will be sent to high-income earners, including 25,000 people with income more than $1 million, the tax agency said

This is who the Republican party’s complaints about the IRS are intended to protect.

    I believe this it’s more about the 1% VS the 99% instead of the left vs the right.

          The Democrats very much less so; a big chunk of their coalition is the labor unions who are outside that demographic.

            They just like to play the role, at the end both parties work for the elite. They love money and they are capable of do anything for it.

            Obviously they are not so open about it, there should remain the illusion of choice.

              The Democrats are a coalition, and not every coalition member is on board with downward redistribution, but a big chunk are, and it has a history of showing in the policies they implement.

                Well, in the policies they would totally implement if just enough of them didn’t block them.

                  This one is a great example:

                  • Democrats: lets fund the IRS to go after the richest people
                  • Republicans: OMG armed IRS agents are going to break down your door and tyrannize your pet ferret
                  • Democrats: IRS sends out letters asking people who make more than a million per year who haven’t paid their taxes

                    Asking. They don’t ask regular people.

                The main point of a fascist regime it’s it didn’t look like a fascist regime at all, that’s why it’s so important for the 1% who control the regime to keep the illusion of choice, people will keep having hope(having hope it’s important for the human nature) of a better future at both sides(left and right) but the reality it’s the system will be working for the 1% behind the curtains.

                Both parties will keep “working” in different directions in apparience while the elite agenda it’s slowly pushed thought the population distracted by the illusion of choice.

                  That’s just silly. We’ve got one fascist party and one moderate party (with some actual leftists as part of their coalition)

                  There’s a world of difference between how the two would govern

                    You look it from the point of the illusion of choice, the fact it’s there is no choice.

                    Let me put it this way:

                    Imagine that the world is a chess board, left and right are the pieces on the board (politicians), the colors are the ideologies (right or left, white or black, good or bad), apparently that’s all what is there but you are forgetting the most important thing, Who invented the rules of the game? Who made the board and the pieces? Who sold you that game as something you need and how much did you pay for it?

                    The people behind the curtains are experts in mass manipulation, they are experts in distracting the population and creating the illusion of choice, in fact they don’t even have to be in the public eye and be famous for that. it’s the last thing they want.

                    They control the intelligence agencies around the world and the largest technology companies today, they have specialists analyzing the data collected from people’s use of the Internet, they control the mass media as well as the social networks that most people use.

                    Do you really think that the most powerful person in the world is the president of the United States? That only happens in movies.
