They also won’t audit you if your rich, so there is a nice middle-class sweet spot they can exploit. If your poor though, they may try to still come after you so they can throw you in jail for some of that cheap labor for tax evasion.
Under the Biden administration, as a result of the inflation reduction act, the IRS audited the rich and saw large increases in revenue as a result.
As part of larger efforts taking place, the IRS has stepped up activity specifically on 1,600 individuals whose incomes were more than $1 million per year and who each owed the IRS more than $250,000 in recognized tax debt. Since last fall, this IRS compliance effort has generated more than $1 billion in collections from this group, with work continuing in this area.
Under the Biden administration, the IRS made a concerted effort to target the wealthy, aiming to double audit rates for those making more than $10 million a year and launching a campaign to investigate private-jet owners. Now, especially with the potential dismantling of the Department of Justice Tax Division, the tax enforcement ranks are rapidly dwindling.
“The agency is like a zombie right now,” said Kathleen Pakenham, partner at Vinson & Elkins, who handles corporate and high-net-worth tax cases. “There is no brain in charge of what’s happening on the ground.” -NBC News

The current admin gutted the IRS specifically so they didn’t have enough resources to go after the rich
