The IRS is closing more paper return processing sites around the country. Turns out that 86 percent of taxpayers file their return electronically. “According to the IRS, the result would be a loss of 1,800 employees in Covington; 3,000 employees in Fresno; and 2,400 employees in Austin.” That is great news. Now these people can get a productive job. What kind of American would work for the IRS anyway?
