For everyone not reading the story. The majority of this is from rich people, large businesses, and partnerships. The IRS is indicating that they need to go after those people I just listed more. Why CBS decided to write the headline in a manner that makes it sound like they are coming after everyone, is likely because they knew it would generate more “emotions” about those connotations.
The agency has said it wants to go after higher earners who skirt their tax obligations in order to help close the tax gap and raise more money for federal coffers
But the story indicates that the IRS feels like they need to go after rich people even more based on their recently released data. At no point in the story did the IRS indicate that they needed to take the average household and put the clamps on them. Thank you for your time.

In this context, I would love to see more audits!
