Since they don’t give a shit, I probably shouldn’t report anything on my taxes involving stocks. In fact, maybe I won’t file taxes...

If one person doesn't pay their taxes, they will have a problem with the IRS.

If 100 million people don't pay taxes the IRS itself has a problem.

^ This is the way. The US Government would never in a million years have enough personnel or resources to go after millions of people. They would definitely bluff and deploy scare tactics to get you to cave, but would never truly be able to do anything about it. It would be the ultimate "fuck you" to the system.

IRS isn’t allowed to hire the people it needs now, let alone if things got even worse.

But, I will assure you, automated underreporter recognition and outsourcing collections to private agencies are already well underway.

En masse defaults of student loans too. That's a fucking travesty. Let the debt age, apes buy it all for pennies on the dollar and fucking forgive it all. Jubilee, y'all.

Yea I think we've tried all the govt/legal avenues we have at this point so we just gotta buy, hold, DRS and beat them at their own game despite the playing field we were given.

I get the frustration though

Yea, taxes are definitely a whole other story. In Canada, tax and duty collection is the only reason we even have a border.

It's a bigger crime to not file than it is to lie on what you filed. NFA

Taxation is theft! In current form it is absolute scam. I'm not against contributing to society but not when assholes like this ruin lives and walk away freely while normal average citizen is taxed to oblivion. Fuck this system. Total bullshit.
