What would be the politicians’ response to an IRS audit as follows:
Each final presidential candidate, going back a minimum of 10 years.
Each general-election congressional candidate, going back a minimum of 10 years.
Each member of Congress audited at the midpoint of each term.
Every cabinet member be audited every two years.
Every presidential appointed staff or department member every two years.
Every federal employee grade GS-15 and above every two years.
Every registered “lobbyist” every two years.
It might awaken some of the tax cheats to mend their ways. It would certainly impress all members of the American public, who have always been subject to an IRS audit.
