re: #8 Dangerman

people dont pay their taxes when they get greedy or desperate.

Because the system is voluntary
And enforcement is a joke. Until it becomes too obvious to ignore

There’s a reason the GOP wants to gut and filet IRS enforcement, and made up all kinds of bulkshit about the IRS funding that included adding 87,000 customer service, audit, and investigator workers to the IRS, mostly to cover retirements and attrition over the next decade.

It still does little to improve audit rates on the millionaire class, which is far more likely to take advantage of lax enforcement to engage in scams and tax fraud.

It isn’t surprising Rudy is facing tax problems, on top of everything else.
