    Not actually that profitable - but a much lower entry cost. Budget cuts to the IRS championed by the GOP have declawed it - at least they used to actually nail the rich in addition to nailing the middle class.

    Now, instead, they send me a letter informing me that I made a 43 cent mistake on my tax form, spending more in paper and postage than they get from the correction, while the ultra-wealthy enjoy a total lack of scrutiny.

      Oh, I’m sure the ultra-rich got the same letter. Then they gathered their flock of lawyers and had them extort 400k out of the IRS for some failure of procedure bullshit.
