    Poor people can’t afford lawyers to fight back.

    Rich people can.

    Ergot Ergo, they aim at poor people way more often.

          The military also doesn’t make any revenue probably.

        Yeah not my fault its a badly considered meme.

        I was just responding to the second half.

        The IRS isn’t in charge of auditing the Pentagon, congress is.

        Well, they are pretty clearly tripping, so maybe grain fungus has more to do with it than we realize.

    USA is an empire based on the strongest military in the world. Of course DoD has green light for everything. Or you believe that european countries/japan follow the american interests against their own for good will?

    May I introduce you to our lemmy instance? Sending over $600 without the IRS feeling up on you, lol.

    I don’t condone tax evasion, but I do oppose mass surveillance and firmly believe “innocent until proven guilty”. The biggest tax evaders are large corpos and megachurches anyway.

      Thank you. I keep seeing memes like this but have never heard of anyone I know actually getting audited. I only got audited once when I completely forgot to include the income from a place I worked for a couple weeks, which is fair (and probably automated on their end considering they would’ve sent their withholding information to the IRS anyways)

        Yes that process is basically automated. It’s actually called The Automated Underreporter.

    The only certainties are death and taxes, but I’m still waiting on both to catch up with me.

      Fyi, if the IRS thinks you are dead, they stop coming after the taxes. I’m not totally clear on the legalities of it, though.
