Is it okay to continue to work for a (non-defense) federal government agency under an administration hostile to my own moral and ethical beliefs?

Should I be looking for a different job?
You're viewing a single thread.
If you're working for the government, you had no morals and integrity before.
Huh? This is an edgy thing to say.
We need taxes filed and mail delivered. Environment monitored and earth science conducted. Etc. There's countless jobs that are apolitical and vital to everything worth anything in a modern society.
taxes filed
The state forces peasants to this and they have to use corpo soft slop to do it...
Even in Europe they have government employees "filing" the taxes on their end. It's just much better. Every country needs a tax department like the IRS.
Like, are you suggesting you do ALL the work of processing and accruing taxes and the IRS employees do nothing?
I'm not defending the US system where citizens have to prepare their own taxes, but the implied suggestion that IRS employees don't do something critical is silly.
US peasant has legal obligation to file taxes. He or she must do this.
Funny enough you ask this because if you fuck up your taxes, IRS will correct when you try to submit. They pretty much have all the data for large section society, ie wage worker with basic retirement accounts. So they know the numbers. So technically US know how much most must pay.
Tax software lobby however forces this system and blocked attempts at models like EU for decades. There is some limp dick try for low income people that is being worked but it is literally designed to work for broke ass pleb with basic w2 income.
Yappin. I acknowledged the US system is not ideal, the point is we need an IRS and frankly need them to do MORE to be more like other countries.
Issue not the IRS, the issue is the tax code written by regime whores serving oligarchs.

Not the point of this thread. The point is the value of government employees existing.
