    With enough resources they’ll run out of easy targets faster and they’ll have to go for harder ones.

      Yeah, and that’s terrible. I don’t want the IRS going after everybody that failed to report the $2 in royalties they get from their self-published book before they go after Amazon.

      I want them to prioritize high-value targets over easy marks, and I don’t think giving them a carte blanche is a way to achieve that.

        The funny thing is that all IRS inspectors (or the equivalent in other countries) always say the same: they go after the easy targets because they don’t have resources to go after the hard ones. I assume they have to have a minimum work as finished.
