Good. Mobsters and drug dealers are dangerous. They should be armed to deal with tax cheats like Al Capone.

I thought you backed the BLUE?

Only the non-AA ones though... right? This is based on the FACT that no one wants to report or write a story on the multitude of AA gang members and drug dealers that are committing the majority of gun crime (on their own people) in the country.

You seem a little obsessed.

Where did i say anything about the color of any criminals skin?

Why do you feel personally persecuted to the point you believe everyone is out to get you for being white?

Seems like you might want to talk to someone about that.

THIS was the part that baffled me ...

According to IRS data, more than half of the audits performed in 2021 targeted taxpayers making less than $75,000 per year, as reported by The Washington Post. Additionally, over 40 percent of audits were aimed at taxpayers who received the earned income tax credit, which is a measure to help reduce poverty.

Now, aside from the fact that persons making that little often owe very little tax, the people getting the earned income tax credit owe NO tax, and this could only be catching FRAUD (and having done a tax season, yeah, it's there). Sending armed IRS agents after drug dealers isn't going to happen - for one thing, it's doubtful they keep their W-2s or other tax records, and secondly, if they KNEW where all the drug dealers lived and operated, sending IRS agents is crazy.

So what I see is a case of penny wise, pound foolish, because I don't see how you pay tens of thousands of IRS agents to collect a few hundred or thousand dollars here and there.

There's at least one solution that avoids all this "lost revenue", and that's a national sales tax - and a slow elimination of income tax. Although the very rich can operate quite handily on zero income, they still spend money like the rest of us.

And the Biden family.

Whistleblower report: Chuck Grassley, James Comer say FBI has evidence that Joe Biden committed bribery with a foreign national as vice president 👀

Well, son of a B, it looks like the Big Guy engaged in some dubious quid pro quo over the years:

You were the one who mentioned "dangerous drug dealers."
If you put 10 seconds of thought into my reply instead of shoving Twinkies into your face and drooling over your keyboard while typing what you perceive as a "gotcha" reply, then you would understand.
Seems like you might want to talk to someone about tilting at windmills each and every day.

The irony of you accusing someone else of being obsessed.

Following down so many Twitter replies --

I can't grasp how so many will deflect by bringing up Trump. He's not President. Hasn't been for a couple years now. And unless he gets re-elected, whatever he does is kind of NOT of national concern.

And I mean - deflect. Not refute. I personally tend to think of deflection as admission of guilt, but trying to justify it by pointing to other's guilt.

Easy - low hanging fruit. Poor and medium income folks can't afford lawyers and accountants to fight off the government. Rich people can blatantly cheat on their taxes and it will be tied up in litigation for a decade because rich people would rather pay lawyers than fund pointless Democrat wars and illegal Mexicans. The rich can also hide their money in offshore accounts and launder it through "foundations", and that takes a very long time to unravel. Middle income people just scraping by are much easier to audit.

This is just another war on the middle class that the Democrats are so famous for. They have no intention of going after the wealthy because that's who funds their campaigns and greases their palm.

I would have to partially disagree with you on this. It is fairly well known that the largest avenue for tax cheats over the last several years has been the Child Tax Credits. Middle and Lower income tax payers are the ones primarily claiming this credit. Although, I do agree that the rich often evade any wrong doing due to their status AND that Democrats tend to favor them.

Exactly. They don't need 87,000 new ,armed IRS agents to go after the rich, It's the Middle class they are coming after.

Except it's stupid. At best you might find a thousand dollar's fraud from a low income person who can't pay it - and you'll pay a few agents 100-200k a year - to "GET it"

It's a colossal waste of money to find tax fraud among the lowest income households. Aside from the fact that an audit costs money and you don't know if there was fraud when you begin an audit - you're wasting dollars to get nickels - IF there are any to get.

If you mean in terms of actual cases, I might go for that. If you mean actual dollars, I'm going to challenge that claim.

Also if the goal is to make the rich "pay their fair share" I'm not sure how going after low income people accomplishes that.

Can't wait until they drag you out at gunpoint for failing to report your yardsale profits properly!!

If this were the case, congress would STOP CREATING TAX LOOPHOLES

today's tax incentive is tomorrow loophole or giveaway for the rich
