And the IRS is SSSSSOOOOOOOOO generous working out payment plans and being flexible - they never toss people in prison or seize assets for tax evasion. Nope. Never.
So while the plan sounds dumb on the surface, getting a few pennies on the dollar for a debt the IRS won't collect anyway AND getting rid of that govt worker (and their benefits and pension)....actually sounds like a pretty good idea.
How will a private debt collection agency collect a debt the IRS can't? How will a private debt collection agency collect debt cheaper than the IRS? How would this plan reduce the number of IRS employees?
