Summary
Elon Musk claimed on X that he eliminated the IRS team responsible for the “Direct File” program, which allows Americans to file taxes online for free.
His statement was in response to a right-wing MAGA influencer who called the “direct file” tax program a “far-left government-wide computer office” built by Elizabeth Warren.
Thus far, the website remains active.
So it happens to create a backdoor regressive tax via over payments and refundable credits that go unclaimed?
Sounds about right when the cruelty is the point.
