    People get so worried up about taxes being too high. Tax the rich by income like most modern countries do, it brings the tax load on your average person way way way the fuck down.

      I wish the IRS had more funding so they could actually work on that. Get rid of the fucking TurboTax cartel and have the resources to actually audit and combat the überwealthy.

        Correct iirc the collection rate is like a dollar spent collects 12 and that’s with shitty funding and going after the lower middle class because they don’t have the means to fight it forever.
