INCREASED AUDIT RATES:
Under the Inflation Reduction Act, $46 billion dollars is going to be spent on hiring more enforcement agents, and keeping track of cryptocurrency taxes, which, as CBS explains – is a relatively new area of the IRS.
Of course, in a recent statement, Janet Yellen says that those earning under $400,000 won’t have anything to worry about, and that “new funding will crack down on tax evaders among the wealthy and large corporations, invest in technology upgrades that help taxpayers, and hire more customer support staff to prevent backlogs.”
A further clarification explains that “those 87,000 employees will not all be hired at the same time, will not all be auditors and, in many cases, will be replacing employees who are expected to quit or retire.”
HOWEVER, others disagree, pointing out that – just this year alone – audit rates have more than DOUBLED for those making above $100,000 per year, suggesting that, most likely, those earning under $400,000 will ALSO be scrutinized by the IRS at a higher pace than before.
Some argue that “Americans who earn less than $75,000 per year are slated to receive 60% of the additional tax audits,” while the other side says that “those making under $400,000 aren’t the target”…although, from what I could gather…the truth is PROBABLY somewhere in the middle.
What we DO know is that “the bill states that it is not “intended” to increase rates for taxpayers who aren’t in the top 1% of earners,” – even though, they COULD be subject to increased audit rates.
The other thing we know is that IRS funding has declined – SUBSTANTIALLY – since 2010, meaning that – most likely, an increased budget is NOT going to take us above levels that we haven’t ALREADY seen in the recent past.
In fact, The Treasury for Tax Policy went on record to say that: “The proposal would return audit rates to the levels of about 10 years ago; the rate would rise for all taxpayers, but higher-income taxpayers would face the largest increase”
In terms of their hiring, he then explained that “over half of the IRS staff — 50,000 — is eligible for retirement in the next five years, and that much of the funding for new employees will be focused on mitigating that attrition and adding customer service.”
We also know that roughly $200 billion dollars is uncollected due to noncompliance and an inability to audit the complicated returns…so, there needs to be a change, SOMEWHERE, to bring revenue in-line with expectations.

I’m not paying taxes, nor will I. I feel like if they don’t want to work for us, then they don’t deserve my money. If they have a problem with that, they can take it up with my attorneys, Mr. Smith and Mr. Wesson.
u do know theyvare armed…..
The IRS is still immoral and unconstutional just like the NFA. Just courts gate keep to stop it ever getting up the Supreme courts. Do everything you can to pay as little as possible. Legally if course 😉
BTW tax is unlawful. The “tax code” was put in place for government employees only yet the NAZIS, I mean government, just went ahead and started stealing from all Americans under the “tax code” I’ve been eating for over a decade for people to wake up to this and get rid of these scum of America. Maybe tomorrow.
Is there an actual law in existence that says taxes are mandatory? I’ve seen ex-irs employees claim that couldn’t find one.
Yes lets vote for Joe they say, equity they say.
Yeah they fine you out the yin-yag when youre behind and late but they dont have to do anything except give you your return, depreciated by inflation. It should go both ways.
16 US Supreme Court decisons have defined “income” as corporate profit…..
Smells like communism. Or as non-racist-racists would say ‘Equity of outcome’ (Ha-ha-haaa-haaa-ha-haaa)
Sleepy Joe’s America 🤡
Only a “United States Citizen” pays taxes.
TurboTax
it’s called theft
END THE IRS, FED, NSA, AND CIA
The IRS is a total fraud. If audited, first ask them to show you the law stating they have a right to tax your income. It doesn’t exist!
WHO AUDIT THE IRS??
For “General Ignorance” tax codes is not the laws, but it’s enslavement of humanity so the criminal ruling class don’t have to work and feed off the poor working class. Nobody pay TaxTortion theIRS whole scam system will collapse end of TaxTortion stop living in fear 😱. No Nobody get harm, murder & property damage No crime. Our TaxTortion go to support black projects, wars, corruption networks so on so…
Taxes are hidden fees for being alive.
If you’re dead, suddenly you don’t have to pay.
The difference is all in how you present yourself.
I identify as dead, but because no one will listen to me I am thus alive and due to the scene in Armageddon, I don’t have to pay them ever again.
Arrest
So who audits the irs
Tired of the IRS stealing our money they did not work for
All presidents Life
Easier to audit people who can’t afford teams of lawyers 😂
Haven’t reported in 20 years I’ll just keep it f*** them
Just here to say that the thumbnail picture for this video is brutal
Taxes are unconstitutional.
The whole government is a fraud taxes is only for people that work in the Government.
They go after the poor people because they can’t afford legal counsel.
What a joke. The wealthy will be taxed more. 😆 🤣 😂 how the fk can she say that? How does she know that more companies won’t leave to AVOID taxes LEGALLY
This show makes my head spin and ears hurt.
This is some of the best non political advice and information I’ve ever seen on YouTube
Follow IRS employees home and tax them…easy
We need libertarian politicians to gut the federal government. It’s bloated, it’s corrupt, it’s crippling citizens with beauracracy and draconian taxes. First thing a libertarian president would do is end the Fed, defund the IRS, & end federal income tax.
But we keep voting for big gov parties every year. Sad.
That FTX ad did not age well lol
The ftx sponsor is seeming kinda awkward right about now
That FTX affiliation didn’t age well…
How about it no more taxes some states of different countries around the world. Do that it could happend in USA history .
I bet that is why they’re really pushing this new agenda which pushes to get rid of like gig workers being independent contractors on A1099. That makes a lot of sense…. They fear that area is hurting their tax dollars.. But honestly they should just sit out from like the billionaires
Wait…. So they’re spending $80 billion on expanding the IRS, in order to collect an extra $8 billion over 10years??🤦🤦
Yeah the IRS is using Military grade tech. OBAMA military grade tech. Whatever the men up top can poop out, buy from China, and make us the weakest nation in terms of taxes.
We need a leader who provides the best for the least. We need a Business man
what will they do if every body just stopped paying? like most of the us. do the irs just die?
Fortunately, I had a college economics teacher that taught me a lesson at 18. That lesson was: for every purchase you make, you can’t buy something else. Varied sources of income is wise and especially living within your means. Think about taxes and how you get your income. I made $72k combined net last year and paid no Federal taxes.
IRS has entered chat
Frick taxes, frick the IRS, just frick ’em.
They need to stop playing victim and balance the damn debt clock. How in the hell someone baby already in debt before 18 that they say you owe cus of their bad spending habits and poor wealth distribution. They can kiss where the sun don’t shine. I hope them to hell
Thank your neighbors with the Biden/Harris sign in their yard…I’m sure they are super friendly all of a sudden.
There’s Satan
And there’s the IRS
The IRS is woefully understaffed with skilled workers. 1/2 of these workers are retiring. Many workers are just taking taking a paycheck, not doing anything at all. Their computers are broken, their buildings are crumbling, etc.
Must be like the office at the beginning of the movie “Joe vs. the Volcano”…
The replacements are for woke entitled immature ppl will not know what they are doing!! The generation that is retiring are the ones who are really educated.
Hi Graham — I notice you edit out all your pauses. Leave the pauses! Our brains need those pauses to be able to process what you said. It’s more natural to have pauses in speech, so that our brains have a chance to think and process. If you take the pauses out, you stress out our brains big time, we can’t process the information without some pauses. Thanks.
Awesome content Graham, Fortunately, I had a college economics teacher that taught me a lesson at 18. That lesson was: for every purchase you make, you can’t buy something else. Varied sources of income is wise and especially living within your means. Think about taxes and how you get your income. I made $72k combined net last year and paid no Federal taxes.
So you just claimed exempt? Or what?
Finally someone speaks out
I predict being a irs agent will become the most dangerous job on earth
I predict in the not to far future the only profitable jobs will be working for government.
Poor citizens 😩😩😩
We are innocent, they are the ones that are guilty. Don’t let them intimidate you.
STAND YOUR GROUND, IF YOU DON’T, THEY WILL CONTINUE TO PUSH YOU.
I’m with you. This guy is late. I stopped paying taxes in 2020 when they attempted to perform medical experiments on me
Feels like its time to make way out of the usa while its still legal to do so…
IRS ignore TRUMP audit,
If no one pays, how would they handle it? ARREST ALL OF US?
Tax Billionaire, stop going after the poor
Hey IRS! Where is the 900 billion dollars that went missing? Alan Grayson still wants to know.
I just need to know how much as a single mother will I need to pay in taxes if I get paid 84-87k a year? Started 2/2022. Help
So glad they are about to repeal this IRS funding
Can you make a video on the best way to file your taxes? Thank you!
IRS have too much power! SMH
John.Henderson
the IRS will never straight up audit you for a mistake. get an accountant and stop crying
So why does irs website say tax is voluntary??
I stopped paying taxes in 2020 when the govt tried to force an injection into me lol
They won’t streamline the tax code, it is intentionally complex to benefit the biggest cheats in history. The politicians and the corporations that fund their campaigns.
I’m furious, my tax increased so much, and I’ve been taking home less. I was anxious since I paid so much that I was getting a fat refund.
They must benefit from us messing up. I would have liked to learn more about taxes in grade school, rather than measuring triangles and circles lol😠
Any power given to an organization will tempt the leaders to abuse that power. Most of the time, there are abuses of power, esp. in government.
Of course, some people seem to think that evil only applies to the masses…
Don’t fall for it anyone….ALL CAPS name is fraud.
Nobody exists on purpose. Nobody belongs anywhere. Everybody’s gonna die. Come watch TV? -RM
Show me the law(s) that state I have to pay an income tax. There isn’t one but your welcome to try.
I always click the like button before I watch your videos.
We built this country on taxes not working for us and now our taxes are being spent on elite pedos and increased immigration. Meanwhile I make a small fuckup or my employer and now I owe 1000$.
I think the title of the video doesn’t have anything to do with the content. Also one correction: taxes aren’t used to fund the federal government. The people who sued because collecting taxes is illegal were actually right. The Justice system is corrupted so suing wouldn’t be the right way to go about fighting this.
Yeah that money they getting comes from us they are the mofia
Nice title, had nothing to do with content.
Fairtaxnow.
Where is the part where we stop paying taxes?Clickbait bs.
Let go of money & stop paying taxes.
ooohh oh yeah yeah yeah oh oh ooohhh ohhh yeah yeah yeah yeah, I’m the tax man…doo doo do da da im the tax man
low income fraud is way easier to prove because they don’t have a million things and quasi legal forms of obfuscation. im not a tax guy, so idk the lingo, probably know what i mean tho.
There is No law to pay taxes
It will never get less complicated. Keeping the people uneducated with taxes gives them more of reason to give misleading information and audits.
I’ve been audited twice and it showed I payed right lol, 40k/year.
Federal taxes are VOLUNTARY unless you’re a corporation! Stop paying down the national debt, the 16th amendment was never ratified.
Your video says stop paying taxes and you mentioned nothing about that. Do you work for the IRS?
Taxation is THEFT
love this thank you gram I appreciate all the work you put into your vids
“STOP PAYING TAX” is the title. You did not go into that. I’m going back to the thumbnail and selecting “do not recommend channel” because you are a liar.
They print money out of thin air, how about you just print what I owe you.
Stop paying tax? Thanks for the info Graham! I’m not filing for anything this year and will keep my money
It is not a solution .Everybody have to do it all together.
Bunch of sheep
What does the IRS do with the money they steal from the people?
They give it to the banking cartels family that made the central government in America aka Federal Reserve
I got a CP2000 letter from the IRS and they want $8,000 which I have never earned in 2021
This is just gross. Money is more important than human life in the US. Of course, the real cheats…those who use fake companies called trust funds to skirt inhertiance tax or the billionaires with offshore funds will be left untouched. Meanwhile, in Switzerland it’s an honor system. Obscene. We print our own money for wars by the way. We dont even need taxes for things like infrastructure and education that pay for themselves anyways. Its just another way to criminalize the poor and working classes.
Unconstitutional
Fair? Gfys
IRS coming with their guns for you!!!
Many dead taxpayers
Collecting all your money and reducing population
