9. The IRS likes to play gotcha, not with the filthy rich, but with the middle class

The IRS knows exactly how much you make and how much the government keeps. They know when you sell big investments and when your grandma gives you $100,000. They are worse than Santa Claus who sees you when you're sleeping.

Why don't they send us a bill and quit playing gotcha when average people can't figure out the bizarrely complicated tax laws? Our government waits until you make a mistake then they gotcha. They fine you, charge you interest and then take the taxes anyway. They never treat the filthy rich like that.

The IRS should be focusing on the big bucks not an extra $40 from some poor guy who can't add. My grandfather never made more that $25,000 a year. The IRS audited him every year for a decade.....my grandfather never made it pass the 8th grade.

We need to reform the IRS so they focus on where the real tax dollars are hidden. And the big bucks ain't in any middle class accounts. They need to stop acting like the filthy rich's wealth protectors and they have to stop playing gotcha with the middle class.
