Terrifying? Even if you're anti-tax, those to fail to pay taxes are a big part of the problem. What's the motivation to fight over-taxation if those who wish to opt-out can simply do so with little chance of consequence.

I know of at least two business owners who are flat out stealing from the IRS and their employees. Both of them are more than three years behind on federal withholding tax payments. It's not even their money! This is their employees' withholding tax. I know this because of public filings against them. I can only imagine their personal tax situation.

Everyone I talk to says the same thing: "Ooooooh boy, they've really got it coming." When? When do they have it coming, exactly? Because as far as I can see, they're both still driving cars that are more expensive than mine, live in houses that are bigger than mine, and spend money like it's going out of style.

I have no desire to skip on my taxes, and I'm perfectly happy with the life I live, but it flat out pisses me off to see these people cheat the system and get away with it. It makes me feel like the "big bad IRS" is just some children's fairy tale meant to scare normal people in to compliance. Meanwhile, a whole pack of miscreants run amok with other peoples' money. It's just not right. Frankly, I'd rather see these people in jail than the pot head down the street that is spending 90 days in jail for the joint he had in his pocket while walking home from work. True story.
