What is a bit surprising is how many IRS agents are going to be hired to enforce the new codes: 16,500! Now this is based on a release by Republican congressmen Kevin Brady, so that does make me skeptical. But the release bases the 16,500 number on an analysis by the Joint Economic Committee and the House Ways & Means Committee minority staff. So we’ll have to wait and see. But if Brady is anywhere close to accurate, it would seem to cast doubt on the idea that Obamacare will reduce the tax burden and amount of red tape.

Healthcare Reform Eve: A Pork Fest of Corporate Welfare
