#PresidentMusk & #Trump continue to implement #Project2025 and #RAGE.

The #IRS was understaffed until the #Biden administration hired more staff and audited more #taxcheats to where they were able to increase tax revenue by 1 billion dollars in one year. But along comes Trump, and they fire these employees. So now these cheaters can resume not paying their rightful share. America already has a revenue crisis that has ballooned the deficit, and under Trump will grow worse.

We require MORE IRS staff, not less, so the #Musks of the world will not get a free ride on the backs of working Americans.

Wall Street financiers were a clear target of the tax, but some, on questionable legal grounds, have claimed their outsized profits were exempt, sometimes avoiding hundreds of millions in taxes.

Wealthy Americans are still ducking the IRS crackdown on non-filers.

10s of 1000s of wealthy Americans aren't complying with recently revamped IRS efforts to get them to file tax returns.

“We continue to pursue these folks -This isn't work that we will let go.”
-IRS

A quirk in fed tax law may be incentivizing wealthy people who want to avoid taxes to not file their returns.

The IRS needs more funding, under the Trump admin, they'll likely be defunded.

Good: The IRS is taking on tax cheats who misuse corp jet business deductions:

IRS plans “dozens of new audits” of corp. jet usage as part of its increased scrutiny of lg. corps, complex partnerships & top earners.
