A recent congressional report demonstrates anew just how dismissive, spiteful and rogue the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has become when dealing with the very people who pay for its existence: The American taxpayer.

According to a report by majority Republicans on the tax-writing House Ways and Means Committee, “Doing Less with Less: IRS’s Spending Decisions Hurt Taxpayers,” fewer than half of taxpayers who attempted to contact the agency with a question about taxes this year did not get a response.

In fact, the IRS itself estimated that it could only answer 17 million of the 49 million calls it received this tax-filing season; those lucky enough to get through spent an average of 34.4 minutes waiting for help, or nearly double the 18.7 minutes during the previous year’s tax-filing season.
