A report from the committee finds the IRS reduced its funding for taxpayer services by six percent. But it still gave $60 million dollars in bonuses to its employees.
IRS Commissioner John Koskinen said the agency has 13,000 fewer employees and $1.2 billion less than five years ago. He says that's why only half of callers to the agency get through to a live operator.

not to mention Lois Lerner's retirement - abolish the IRS!
that money should be in all of our pockets, not those government paper pushers
YOUR tax dollars.
Keep cheering.
Bonuses for reps that are rude and hang up the phone on you if they don't understand your question. We are on a payment plan and they told us they could not give us the balance due thatwe owe them. Yep, they sure deserve bonuses alright. Makes me ill.
3:00 - hang up!
They don't even bother to answer the phone!
Shut this agency down - and implement a flat tax!
Why hang up?? I got a letter that listed a balance that was higher than what I owed. I wanted to get some answers! After talking to three people, I still had no definitive answer. :-(
