No matter how he tries to spin it most Americans might have a problem awarding bonus payments to the IRS.
Treasury Secretary Jack Lew not only defended the granting of bonuses to IRS employees Wednesday before the Senate Finance committee, he said there was not a proper level of funding for the agency to “do everything that we really need them to do.”
Under questioning from Sen. John Thune (R., S.D.) over the agency’s targeting of conservative groups and concern that employees involved were still granted bonuses, Lew said there were no signs of political interference in any of his department’s reviews.
It’s little things like this that make Senator Ted Cruz’ call to abolish the IRS so popular!

Idiot
Taking people’s hard earned money is already corrupt and done in an unfair manner that benefits the rich and burns the poor and middle class… I say, “Only Tax The Wealthy Until The Field Levels Out”… HAHAHAHA!!!*/ijk
take a long walk off a short pier you fool !!!!!!!
The bonuses are to make sure they all keep their mouths shut about what they know
IRS employees who engage in the targeting of any groups because of political affiliation do not deserve bonuses; they deserve to be horsewhipped.
bs
Their bonuses should be jail time and than the unemployment line.
no way!!
No bonuses for ANYONE in government. !!!!!!!
Do the IRS people get annual bonuses? Is this a perk or is there some “standard” attached to the bonus? I don’t get it? My old company paid bonuses, but only if the company had a great (not good) year.
