I’m guessing you grew up in Nassau County or somewhere in Long Island
If you had to guess how many IRS agents vote Republican? Half? Less than half? Less than 20 percent?

Government workers are parasites by nature. I don't see any long term solutions. Best to focus on controlling the size of the beast.

Yeah, your numbers are probably right. It's still going on re Long Island. I have personal knowledge of it through close family and friends.
