Residents of Arizona are voicing their displeasure with the billions of dollars that have been allocated to boost IRS enforcement as part of the massive Democrat-backed social spending and taxation bill that was agreed to by Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, a Democrat from Arizona, late Thursday evening.
Sinema stated that she would “go forward” with the bill, which is officially known as the Inflation Reduction Act, even though she had previously indicated that the law would need to undergo amendments before she would be willing to endorse it.
Fox News Digital spoke with several people living on the streets of Arizona to get their perspective on the billions of dollars in funding for the IRS that is included in the bill.
They voiced their disgust at the notion that the federal government would spend such a substantial amount of money to “go after the little person.”
Willis Daychild, a local resident, was quoted as saying, “To tell you the truth, I don’t like that, that element of it.” However, he did say that he agreed with the main goals of the measure.
“They are going to be looking for everyone who hasn’t turned in their taxes yet, so expect them to be out and about. The individual who pays the least amount of taxes is typically the one who receives a reprimand for their actions.”
Gary Kuznia, a local resident, agreed, and he argued that the Internal Revenue Service would “go after” individuals with lower incomes rather than the wealthy.
“They won’t bother with the big fish; they’ll focus on the little fish instead. They most certainly will. And they have no intention of ever going after the wealthy folks.
Never. Or else, they would have already done it because they are not paying the amount of taxes that are considered to be their fair share right now “he stated.

“Little folks like myself, who are now retired, cringe whenever I see something like that. I truly believe that. My entire life has been spent in the accounting profession, and I have no desire to observe that.
I certainly hope not, though. They are going to go after the little guy, the folks who make less money and make those people pay for it.
Simply because they are obligated to pay for this bill. How are they going to come up with the money to pay for this bill?” he added.
Richard Carrillo, a resident of the area, stated that he agreed with the law, but he was concerned about the amount of money that would be given to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to encourage more auditing.
He made the following statement: “I don’t know about the audits, but if it’s going to assist and benefit people, then I say yes.” “I have no idea about the audits,” she said.
