The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is the tax collection and enforcement agency of the United States Treasury Department.[citation needed]
Views
Many libertarians have called for abolishing the IRS. Anarcho-capitalists call for completely abolishing the federal government, which would eliminate any need for federal taxes. Some minarchists favor a program of drastic tax reform that would put the states in charge of collecting federal taxes. For example, many states already collect sales taxes for their own purposes, so it would be administratively simple for them to increase the sales tax rate by a few percentage points and give those extra revenues over to the federal government, perhaps with an agreed-upon fee deducted for carrying out the service of tax collection.[citation needed]
