Jane. I have been audited by the IRS three times in my life even though I have been a middle class wage earner all that time. Audited once while in Graduate school. Can you believe it? A Federal tax expert told me that the probability of a wage earner being audited once was less than once in a lifetime. The probability of twice was infinitesimal. The probability of three times was zero, unless I am an embezzler. I am not. Never have been. But I was a draft resister and a member of SDS during the Vietnam War. Coincidence maybe?
A colleague, a USNA graduate, 30 year veteran, who had been a military judge who tossed evidence obtained by torture, was audited and although his violation was nebulous, they fined him $25,000 because, they said as a judge, he made a good example.
Even the judiciary. Which reminds me, the media and no one has asked why Chutkan has not thrown Trump in jail for violating her orders. Political fear, external pressure from DOJ (Garland). $15,000 in fines, are chump change to Trump, an equivalent of $.15 cents to us, and no deterrent at all. Putting him in prison wold be a good example, but I fear that, because of politics and fear he will skate.
Not a coincidence, FBI probably has a dossier on you, ask for it under FOIA.
I met, on line, a convert to Islam, lived in Si,lver Springs, WA, County Sheriff calls him the Sheik of Silver Springs, runs a camp for kids, probably Muslim.
He converted after Wounded Knee II. he had been an agent for the FBI, and after Wounded Knee II, he was so disgusted that he converted. his screen name was WindRiverShoshoni.
The IRS, FBI, Secret Service DHS, CBP, Sheriffs and police are conservative institutions and naturally attract those inclined to the right, and it has only gotten worse, to the extent that you can't trust them anymore. As an example, the FBI totally ignored the threat from the right, focusing their infiltration and investigations on leftists. and I suspect that the left is still their top self selected priority. Following in the footsteps of that gay transvestite J.E. Hoover.
