I get the intent here, but it’s a really bad comparison. It’s certainly easy to get confused about without base level awareness of finance and accounting things.
The DoD is a government cost center. It doesn’t generate revenue. Therefore nothing to tax. Meaning nothing for the IRS to audit.
That’s why the federal government has other audit authorities and often contracts independent auditors to help. Those people are auditing department spending and assets related though. This type of audit is not to check if taxes are owed. It’s more like making sure the department bank account is correct to keep this simple.
This. Congress is in control of auditing the Pentagon.
The most the IRS would do would be auditing the incomes of people who work at the Pentagon.
Badly put together meme.
I found this article on the audit. It’s also about boring but necessary things like stockpile management, automation, climate risk, and bookkeeping. It’s broken into 30 sub-audits. It sounds like all of these must be fully passed as “clean” for an audit to not be considered failing.
Poor people can’t afford lawyers to fight back.
Rich people can.
ErgotErgo, they aim at poor people way more often.Not sure what grain fungus has to do with it
Well, they are pretty clearly tripping, so maybe grain fungus has more to do with it than we realize.
Nice catch.
