This means no tax enforcement against billionaires.

    Pretty much. Wages are reported to the IRS by your employer, so you can’t really evade taxes on them.

      Thats if you’re a salary person. Plenty of gigs out here that dont operate like that.

        Sure, if you’re getting paid cash with no 1099 and no w2, you can get away with it. Most people, not so much.

          In very few lines of work is getting paid cash going to get you the inome that would trigger DOJ Tax Evasion profiling. The only one I can think of is extra-legal. Drugs. It’s drugs.

          Because 1099s are infallible and totally not filled out by the individual. If you’re in the US taxes are designed for fraud. I’d agree with you if I were in a real country with real tax laws.
