Why does everyone think that by eliminating the income tax and replacing it with the Fair Tax, or any national sales tax that the IRS would be eliminated? The IRS stands for Internal REVENUE Service. Sure, much of their role would change...or would it? I would see them becoming the KGB over the public's right for cash transactions. Or barter. They will not go away. Just attack from a different direction. Eliminating the IRS (as we know it) comes only with eliminating the income tax only be repealing the 16th amendment and replacing it with nothing.
