Trump and his NAZI bunch want them out and back to business as usual. Go after people with no means to fight them--they usually just bend over and send a check whether it's warranted or not.

They tried that rap on me for about $850 ten years ago when I was still working and self employed. Between myself and my long time tax preparer we beat their asses with facts and documents showing they were full of shit--and they knew it. They backed off and closed the case in about 60 days. Guess they figured with a relatively low amount like that I'd just shit my pants and mail them a check that day. Wrong! We are the people the IRS goes after,not the rich.....

The filthy rich will one again (after they drain the IRS and get an audit notice) tell them we'll drag this audit out for the next ten years OR you can go hassle people that aren't millionaires and billionaires and collect from most of them in a flash.
