The US government has a lot of work to do before they can be trusted to do that. They're allowing a serial rapist, liar and grifter to run for a second term as president, their collective decision making is questionable at best.
You are mixing up unrelated things. Politics is a circus but that doesn't mean the Government can't do certain things well.
It does when they don't...
Considering how under-funded and understaffed the IRS has been/is, they do a pretty amazing job with what they have to work with. Simplifying or redoing our tax codes again is a huge task that will take time. There does need to be some sort of progress though! We'll see what type of government we'll have shortly.
