Sure the “rich” owe a lot of back taxes….but so do middle class and poor people….who do you think these agents are gonna go after? Low hanging fruit or rich people with teams of lawyers?
I wholeheartedly support tax enforcement but I don’t think people really understand the impact this will have on people struggling to get by. there are so many people out there that skirt taxes by changing their deductions and they’ll be the ones that end up suffering.
The IRS isn't going to go after the "low hanging fruit." Doing so doesn't justify the existence of the agents as it would cost them more to go after the amounts owed. They will focus on the egregious ones. That has always been the way they do things.
