The Power to Destroy: How the IRS Became America's Most Powerful Agency, How Congress is Taking Control, and What You Can Do to Protect Your

It is obvious that the people who gave this book one star are either tax avoiders or work for the IRS. This book was very informative and helps people know where to go when they need help. It is very good and keeps interest. I recommend it! I wonder if 20/20 with Sam Donaldson based their stories on the book.

The Power To Destroy is a terrific book for every taxpayer. It was a page-turner that left me knowing how to deal with the IRS. It has great stories and a strong message with real workable recommendations. And it is very accessible for everyone.

This is the kind of book our leaders should be writing, a careful and compelling analysis of a federal agency that has grown out of control. "The Power to Destroy" is entertaining, filled with suspense and a pleasure to read. It offers ample evidence of why the current system needs to be changed. Even more, it provides workable solutions, and gives taxpayers the necessary information they need to protect themselves and effect such change. I recommend this book to taxpayers everywhere.

This book is destined for great things. Beautifully written, it reads like a novel, with the authors taking you from one compelling anecdote to the next as they illustrate the dangerous problems inside the IRS. It is not, however, a hatchet job on the agency, but an excellent and reasoned accounting of a culture that must and can be changed. The authors recommendations for change are tangible, and the book is extremely empowering for taxpayers who, after reading it, will never be intimidated again. If you pay taxes, this is a must read. The chapter on how to protect yourself is well worth the price of the book, but there is so much more.

Well written. Very informative! A must read for every American. It not only shares many abuses of the IRS, but gives great tips on what to do if you are ever audited. If you are a tax payer you need to read this book.
