My dad: they’re using it to target conservatives!
Well, yes, or anyone else who isn’t paying their legally mandated share which is already far too little.

Which, unfortunately, just feeds into their narrative that conservatives are unfairly being targeted.
I can't remember the bill but a Democrat had introduced some bill about Nazis or something like that and it was shot down by the GOP controlled congress because, and I believe the quote was, "This would unfairly target republicans".
Talk about telling on yourself.
That's still a drop in the bucket compared to how much they owe and how much they have stolen via wage theft, subverting our government with paid for politicians/judges/officials and unfair laws favorable to them, and otherwise ripping off the public/betraying the social contract. Progress nonetheless though!
For those who wonder how the IRS did this you should read the actual IRS Press Announcement but basically they went after 1,600 specific individuals that they already knew owed them at least 250,000 each.
There is more in the works for TY 2024 and beyond.
Neat
Let's do it again!
Don't worry, Project 2025 will make sure the poor 1% aren't persecuted in such a manner ever again.
But the 1% aren't poor! /s
They are poor in spirit; won’t someone think of those unfortunate souls who’ll have to scrimp and save for that much longer in order to be able to afford their next luxury hypercar?!
Go after people avoiding fuel tax who use untaxed dyed diesel fuel on the road.
