Hillary refused a subpoena to return secret government information (emails etc) and destroyed thousands of them. It will be interesting to see how historians contrast the DOJ treatment of Hillary Clinton vs. Donald Trump who has been under constant attack since before taking office.
Perhaps because of your news sources.
I guess they didn’t have enough to follow-up further more then, or she had enough friends even while everyone was watching, or a bit of both. You could use the same argument for Trump if it was going his way, but it’s not matching up, is it?
Right. I've seen articles like that before. What I want to know is what IRS internal procedures or processes are used. Particularly, what boundaries are in place to protect against bias (political or otherwise) and abuse of taxpaying citizens.
that i don't know. We all saw in the past using the IRS to target people and groups who fit a particular political stance.
History suggests few, but looking at this objectively if they are trying to raise revenue from tax payers, small business will be a target rich environment. Small business is not noted for comprehensive record keeping, and more importantly they can't afford expensive tax attorneys (many don't even hire full time accountants, I didn't). The IRS will likely look at what kind of tax audits reaped the most revenue in the past and pursue more of the same.
Ignoring the little detail that the right dramatically overstates H. Clinton's "crimes":
You realize a deduction you can't prove should not be taken, right? I'm not against deductions...i'm against illegal deductions.
It's only a crime if a Democrat does it, aren't you paying attention?
my brother was audited 4 times. Every time he went in he walked out with a bigger refund than what he had filed.
that's why I said it will be interesting to see how actual historians treat this period, with some perspective of time.
Have you ever run a business? I routinely under claimed my deductions lacking full documentation. The full documentation just wasn't worth the hassle. This got a little easier in recent years thanks to internet documentation of expenses. But running businesses on and off since the 70s was not easy. I repeat I was never audited, but would probably scrape together some more deductions that I was too busy to document while filing.
The laws should be prosecuted equally, or change the laws.
Justice is blind, DOJ is looking pretty partisan.It's only a crime if a Democrat does it, aren't you paying attention?
Yes, I run an LLC for my repair business. When I make a purchase related to the business, I copy the information into Google Drive, and then summarize it for my CPA. My taxable income wouldn't even pay 10% of the salary needed to audit me, but it's not rocket science to know what you can prove and what you can't.
Such easy and mainstream political talking-points. The other side can insert Koch. Either way, it goes nowhere fast. Neither is a valid argument for anything. Even if they were the other side cancels it out.
I didn't have a google drive back in the mid 1970s when I started my first business. As I already noted, it much easier these days to collate internet transactions. I still didn't bother deducting my out of pocket expenses from my last business I shut down almost two years ago.
I can't find any information on the koch brothers donating to fund any campaigns for people running for d.a. or other offices of prosecution. They did donate to a presidential campaign or two. do you have any examples of a koch backed DA or judge?
No. Nor do I care to look for them or for anyone else. Not when it’s perfectly legal and all by design. Want to cut that crap out once and for all? Make it all illegal. Campaigns are ran on personal money alone. Period. The other side is that only the rich will lead the country. Oh wait. That’s how it’s always been. Regardless, can’t have it both ways. Both sides do it, it’s all legal, and it’s not going to change. Argument voided. It’s all just political talking-points and part of the game that voters make the politicians play. We vote for whoever plays our game the best. It’s all about winning for us voters; not real problems solving attempts.
o.k. so you have no example of the koch brothers supporting a d.a. or judge for office but are convinced it happens or happened even without proof.
Back it up a bit. I never said soros. You then said well the other side can easily insert the Koch brothers.
