Your claims seem to be directly contradicted by the data here: https://www.irs.gov/statistics/irs-budget-and-workforce

According to this, FTEs are down, and operating costs are only up ~30% compared to 2010. Average cost of collection is down.

And consider the decline in audit rate for millionaires from 2010-2019 described here: https://www.cbpp.org/research/federal-tax/the-need-to-rebuil...

I guess the onus is now on you to provide support for your claims.

The IRS was in the middle of a hiring spree: https://www.govexec.com/workforce/2023/04/irs-hire-30000-emp...

Those 15k they fired may just be forcing them back to how they were a year ago.
