What SHOULD the role of the IRS be in regulating non profits?
Almost nothing.
The IRS should ONLY take founding paperwork which asserts no profit will be held for distribution to officers and workers.
Any other involvement WILL abridge freedoms outlined in the Bill of Rights. SOONER OR LATER. By one party or the other.
WHY?
BECAUSE THEY CAN.
BECAUSE IT’S HUMAN NATURE
We now find ONCE AGAIN, that with every further involvement in regulation most human power grabs occur, sycophantic careerist behavior occurs, resentment behavior and abuse occur, in short every single EXPECTED behavior the Constitution was written to forbid and limit.
We have a system designed to use the human weaknesses around ambition and desire for power and money against others such desires in other branches of govt, and other political suasion to ensure that the personal freedoms of those of us not interested in all the minutiae of this process retain our own freedoms.
The size, scope and intrusiveness of this govt today make this almost impossible.
The personal stories of of those people who tried to found non profits to use their voice and organizing aptitudes to advance a cause they cared about are chilling not for their impact, but because the govt, the IRS, simply acts in a manner they think correct, with casual power to destroy american freedoms and personal lives.
Normal, everyday folks, visited by the IRS 17 times?
Audits of personal taxes of OTHER DONORS?
Lists of potential donors?
Questioning of LOYALTIES?
Questioning of what they pray for?
Prediction of future activities (speech) taken to limit the organizations’s scope?
Visits by the FBI?
THE FBI?

urging the IRS to do precisely what they did? Threatening legislation if they did NOT do what they did?
Jeanne Shaheen? That is a criterion of how far gone the republic is.
This is the worst conceivable outcome here. The democratic senators writing to IRS were not just doing this administration’s DIRTY WORK they proved as Senators, they BELIEVED their own rhetoric that Tea Party type people were right wing extremists, who were a danger, and a danger which needed to be REPRESSED thru the govt power to ruin the personal, and financial life of such Americans …FOR EXERCIZING THE 1st AMENDMENT.
Repressed in America.
IN AMERICA.
This is not just a scandal, this is proof the founders warnings about govt power is true to every extent in every age. If the govt is granted power, it will USE IT sooner or later to our detriment.
In our personal lives.
Our govt as it has become today - if it does not like your speech, your style, your inclinations, accepts the mantle of action to RUIN YOUR LIFE for that, and only that reason, should you raise your voice.
Power is it’s own vice.
Party is irrelevant.
We need major reformation, not a few rules trying to bend behavior by regulating regulators.
The REALLY bad news, is that this is just ONE of three major scandals facing these people who can manage NOTHING except public perception of them.
