The IRS is drastically understaffed so I don’t know why there’s a comparison here.
I’d like to see what they bring in from tax cheats and people making mistakes to be able to make up my mind if there are too many people or not.
Yeah it’s definitely an apples to oranges comparison, especially since the CRA does tax (federal and provincial/territorial) as well as benefits, while all the others are just federal tax. And agreed the IRS is way underfunded and understaffed.
I went on a bit of a deep dive and looked at the CRAs report cards and departmental plans. Lots of neat information there for 2022-23 fiscal year (not sure why that was in a plan for next year, but interesting stats nonetheless)
There was also a tidbit about tax cheats specifically, and $14.3B coming from that alone, which is $1.2B more brought in, than they spent. Not bad.
You did the math, thanks!
You got it, @SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world
