Grace-Marie Turner, a contributor at Forbes, wrote the following Op-Ed warning about the necessity to reform Obamacare so as not to give power to the IRS: “Congress Has A Duty To Delay IRS Funding To Block ObamaCare's Implementation”
“The authority granted to the IRS over ObamaCare’s mandates, taxes, penalties, reporting, and other requirements is unprecedented. Based upon Government Accountability Office data, we count 46 new responsibilities assigned to the IRS.
The IRS is directed to collect more than $1 trillion in taxes to fund the law, distribute trillions of dollars of subsidies, enforce compliance with the law’s many mandates, and collect information on citizens’ income, employment, health status, etc., and share it with other agencies of the government.”
