So about my prior comment on ignorance of the government. Congress owns making penalties happen. As stated, this post suggests it's the IRS not doing their job.
You're welcome to come up with an alternative interpretation of what's plainly stated. But we can do better than misrepresenting the issues this post does a crappy job of bringing up.
Ok, I see where you're coming from. I looked past the error to see the point of what they meant. You're stating the obvious that the IRS isn't involved with government agency audits. We're arguing about 2 different things.
It's not obvious unfortunately. Otherwise I wouldn't bother.
People have been repeating versions of this same post across social media for weeks. With common replies asking why the IRS isn't doing anything about it.
I have a follow up question, sorry to re-derail this, I'm also from elsewhere so have no idea about freedom financials and audits:
Even when the GAO completes their audit, will it really be of any use if every other line item reads "classified": $stonkbucks?
