I'll believe it when i see it. The amount of lost funds from multi millionaires and billionaires would easily pay for the staff required and yet they don't do it. It has always felt like an intentional act ignoring the wealthy to keep money in the US. Cheat on taxes as long as you keep your business woth us.

Pay more to buy politicians, which are way less than what it costs to pay taxes.
