America's highest earners are pretty adept at not paying the taxes they owe. Scrutinizing them could yield a lot more revenue for the public.

    Tax rate doesn’t make a difference if the IRS doesn’t have the resources to look into their fuckery.

        It wouldn’t help with things like international tax havens, or shell corps, or creative accounting, the list goes on and on. It doesn’t really matter what a single country does, it’s a global issue that would require global cooperation to address.
