Business negotiations are like these Government? differs because politicians are always looking for next elections. This administration is trying to squeeze as much spending as they can. They know it is their last time to grab money. Why? The winds are changing fast ! The populations' perceptions start changing already as they feel the pain on their wallets. Quantitative Tightening is about to hit real big. In 5 years ESG will be buried. Climate change will be seen as a fad. Corporate elites and politicians will be avoiding Davos like the plague!

such an "assault" could only take place in a "Third World country". "It is prosecutorial misconduct, the weaponization of the Justice System, and an attack by Radical Left Democrats who desperately don't want me to run for President in 2024, especially based on recent polls, and who will likewise do anything to stop Republicans and Conservatives in the upcoming Midterm Elections. https://news.sky.com/story/donald-trump-fbi-searching-former-presidents-mar-a-lago-estate-12668800

87,000 new IRS agents hired will make it larger than most other federal agencies COMBINED. The FBI employs approximately 35,000 people, according to the agency's website. Customs and Border Protection says it employs 19,536 Border Patrol agents. The Pentagon houses roughly 27,000 employees, The money allocated to the IRS would increase the agency's budget by more than 600 percent. In 2021, the IRS received $12.6 billion. Federal tax receipts are projected to hit $5.7 trillion in 2027, up from just over $4 trillion last year WITHOUT additional IRS agents. The increase would more than double the size of the IRS workforce, which currently has 78,661 full-time staffers, according to federal data. A Congressional Budget Office analysis found the hiring of new IRS agents would result in more than $200 billion in additional revenue for the federal government over the next decade. More than half of that funding is specifically earmarked for "enforcement," meaning tax audits and other responsibilities such as "digital asset monitoring."
