Republicans fund the military because it's a handout to the people who vote for them. Democrats fund the Federal bureaucracy because it's a handout to the people who vote for them. Neither of the actions are about accomplishing things--just attempts to entrench their own power.

It's attempts to entrech their own power, but IRS also collects money.

Just become something benefits the democrats doesn't mean it can't collect revenue for the state. So, my point still stands.

You have not shown that hiring more IRS agents increases net revenue whatsoever. Let alone that it helps them collect from billionaires evading taxes.
