IRS Commissioner Daniel Werfel said that with a boost in federal funding and the help of artificial intelligence tools, the agency has new means of targeting wealthy people who have “cut corners” on their taxes.
“If you pay your taxes on time it should be particularly frustrating when you see that wealthy filers are not,” Werfel told reporters in a call previewing the announcement. He said 1,600 millionaires who owe at least $250,000 each in back taxes and 75 large business partnerships that have assets of roughly $10 billion on average are targeted for the new “compliance efforts.”
Token victims chosen to placate the masses.
Millionaires are still fucking peasants to the ruling class.
There’s surely a name for when people react with disdain to even the slightest move in the right direction.
“Should have done it earlier” “Not enough” “It’ll probably get shot down in court” “Why bother”
Pragmatic?
Compliance means that if you made a mistake, the IRS will give you a chance to correct it. And if you decide not to fix it? then they come for your shit.
If you don’t want them to come to take your shit, FOLLOW THE FUCKING LAW. So simple!!! Isn’t that how it’s supposed to be?
These right wing nut jobs are something else. Haha.
