About 125,000 notices will be sent to high-income earners, including 25,000 people with income more than $1 million, the tax agency said
This is who the Republican party’s complaints about the IRS are intended to protect.
they’re just waiting for their puppet to come back and dismantle the IRS.

The IRS came after me over the taxes for a couple of grand on a repossessed car that I never got the paperwork on. Apparently I should have just made a few million and not filed at all rather than losing everything I had.
So your argument here is they shouldn’t go after those people now? No, I get you’re annoyed that you got fucked in relation to these fucks, but this is a step in the right direction right?
Your reading comprehension is shit. No wonder they say 21% of the USA is illiterate.
Did we read the same comment?
No, that’s not at all what I’m saying. I’m saying that I was so broke that my car was repossessed and the IRS sees that as me making money. So they billed someone who had literally nothing to their name at the time. Yet due to shit funding they can’t go after millionaires who don’t even fucking file who should be their highest priority because that would bring in both more money for public good and more money for the IRS to go after the bigger fish rather than penny ante bullshit.
I agree. They need to be properly funded to go after the rich assholes hiding behind lawyers. The recent funding is a good thing IMHO. Because otherwise the norm is to continue targeting folks like you.
Sooo… Not only has it not trickled down but, they haven’t even paid their fair share, huh? Who woulda’ thought?!
Obvious the rich didn’t pay tax at all, evade the most time possible to paid it or use tricks to pay the most less posible, it’s a classic, the middle and low class are the ones which pay the majority of tax and in time, it’s the way capitalism work.
The funny thing it’s how some people are proud of paying tax while the rich didn’t pay a fuck LMAO.
The Republicans have long had a strategy of requiring the IRS to heavily audit use of the earned income tax credit for the poor, while starving it for resources, so that it couldn’t audit the richest.
The Inflation Reduction Act the Democrats passed a couple years back gave the IRS money to actually go after the wealthy, which is what we’re seeing here.
I believe this it’s more about the 1% VS the 99% instead of the left vs the right.
The Republicans openly favor the 1%, which is a big difference between the parties
Yeah but both are owned by the 1%
The Democrats very much less so; a big chunk of their coalition is the labor unions who are outside that demographic.
They just like to play the role, at the end both parties work for the elite. They love money and they are capable of do anything for it.
Obviously they are not so open about it, there should remain the illusion of choice.
The Democrats are a coalition, and not every coalition member is on board with downward redistribution, but a big chunk are, and it has a history of showing in the policies they implement.
Haven’t filed tax return? So they don’t want refunds? I’m confused.
The super-rich don’t get much of their income from wages, where there is withholding of a bit more than you’re likely to owe if the wages are your only income. They get it from interest, dividends, and running a business. There is usually not withholding for those, so they’re supposed to make quarterly payments. But the Republicans cut IRS funding years ago, so it didn’t have the resources to go after them if they just stopped paying. So a lot did just that.
People living anywhere less than 10 million aren’t generally living off of dividends though either. Switching to that too soon is a common mistake many of the “merely rich” make.
Sure, but they’re talking about people with income of more than 1 million. If they’re living off interest and dividends, they’ve probably got something in the realm of $30-75 million in assets.
Point.
That’s called GOOD BUSINESS! The TRUE Leeches are the SINGLE MOTHERS using FOOD STAMPS to feed their KIDS!
