If everyone stops paying taxes what the fuck are they going to do about it?
Almost all taxes are collected from the paycheck before you even get your hands on it. The filing is mostly for the tax return on the overpayment. They’ve already thought of it. How you gonna stop paying?
I’m self employed and none of my pay gets withheld for taxes.
Good luck then! Actually curious to see how it will work out.
Yeah… I thought about not paying taxes last April but I don’t want to draw unwanted attention to myself. Did the IRS have a bunch of people let go? Yes. Does that mean that they don’t have enough staff to realize I didn’t pay and come after me? Maybe I don’t want to find out. I’m self employed through my own LLC and I don’t know enough about taxes to do them on my own anymore and I have to pay someone to help me anyway, so the free software wouldn’t have helped much. Last April was the first time I had to do this, prior to that I’d been an employee at a company that withheld taxes.
My 1099 jobs I’m supposed to pay the taxes.
My W2 jobs, I just set allowances to like 20 so at least the bare minimum is being taken out.
By adjusting my W2. It’s not fucking rocket science.
I mean, you don’t have your money, you bank does.
Just change some numbers and “thank you for paying you taxes, a additional 50% tip has been automatically applied”
Cash it out beforehand then. The bank has no right to keep your money if you want it out.
Good, I used it and now I dont need to worry about being audited for those years LmAO
“You’ve heard of Direct File, that’s gone,” Long said. “Big beautiful Billy wiped that out. I don’t care about Direct File. I care about direct audit.”
Jesus i thought he was calling himself “big beautiful Billy” in the 3rd person the way they used their capitulation in that quote lol
it wasn’t for his convenience, but our convenience, but that doesn’t matter i guess
The whole fucking thing is scam so turbo tax and others can suck money out of people
Billy Long, President Trump’s nominee to lead the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), is under increased scrutiny following disclosures that he used recent campaign donations to repay a personal loan from his unsuccessful 2022 Senate campaign.
President Donald Trump’s choice for Internal Revenue Service (IRS) director just had his six-figure debt paid off by campaign donors whose firms have significant, often contentious business before the tax agency he would lead, according to federal records reviewed by the Lever.
In new campaign finance filings, Long disclosed an outstanding personal loan of $130,000 that he had made to his failed 2022 US Senate campaign. The dormant Senate campaign committee had raised less than $36,000 in the last two years, which could have forced Long to absorb the losses on the loan.
But after Trump named Long to head the IRS, the committee suddenly raked in nearly $137,000 in less than three weeks in January — money that Long then used to remunerate himself, according to disclosure documents filed this week.
At least one-third of the money came from donors working at firms in the tax consultancy industry or involved in major tax-related legal battles.

Note that last one, and how Long is moving budget from free filing to auditing support.
Oh… awesome. That’s great
He looks like the epitome of the typical corpulent Republican fuck.
Jabba the Hutt looking ass
Not really much reason to pay Federal taxes anymore anyway sooo…the problem sorts itself out?
Guess who can fuck right off? That guy!!!
We’re at the point in wealth concentration where you can just look at someone and tell when they think poor people should be slaves. He looks like the Monopoly Man.
Too late its open sourced
The open-source repository relies on internal APIs at the IRS. It’s not really meant to be run by your average John Doe.
Was this guy AI generated because he looks and talks like he’s AI generated.
Whatever; the IRS website is hot garbage. It’s a major PITA to navigate; I was never even able to successfully verify my identity to be able to use it.
Nothing of value was lost.
Is that Boss Hogg?
Nah man, Boss Hoggs is dead
Seems like a good time to stop paying taxes.
Wouldn’t that be a cool boycott against this administration? No taxation without representation as they used to say…
You have to be rich to do that!
