United states tax collector

Before everyone could recover, David looked at another black man: "And you, Barron..."

Ten minutes later, everyone in the room could no longer remain calm, and everyone looked like they had seen a ghost.

Because during this period of time, David had completely uncovered the details and income of each of them.

Has the IRS’s auditing capabilities reached a point where it can’t hide any clues?

So scary...

But having said that, people like Osborne were okay. After all, they thought that David was able to investigate so much detailed information because of the powerful national machine of the IRS.

Only Nissen, who is an employee of the IRS, knows that the IRS does not have such detailed information about these zero-dollar purchasers.

In other words, all this information was found by David alone!

But how is this possible!

It would be difficult to investigate such detailed information on just one person, let alone a room full of people!

First, there was the previous case of Enkar's robbery, and now this zero-dollar purchase case. Suddenly, Nissen felt that he could not see through his partner more and more.

"Why, fellow good citizens, don't you want to say something?"

David's slightly sarcastic voice finally brought the black people who were immersed in shocked thoughts back to their senses.

But even now, they are still unwilling.

I worked so hard and risked being beaten and shot, and the income I finally robbed, it would be better for you, the IRS, to come directly to your door and ask for a share of it. This is too bullying!

"Mr. Inspector, since you know everything so clearly, I have nothing to quibble with. Yes, we have participated in many zero-yuan purchases, but..."

At this point, Osborne's tone became longer, and he seemed to have thought of a countermeasure with a calm expression. He said slowly: "According to the new legal regulations introduced in 2020, zero-yuan purchases are not illegal as long as they do not exceed US$950. , In other words, this is not considered illegal income for us, so naturally we don’t have to pay taxes to the IRS!”

Osborne doesn't want to take this policy up against the IRS.

First of all, if they come up with this policy, they will be confirmed as zero-dollar purchasers.

Who knows if the IRS will communicate with the police station, in which case they will be targeted by the police. Although the police can't do anything to them, future operations will definitely not be so smooth.

However, now that things have happened, in order to avoid being cut off by the IRS, he can only do this reluctantly.

"Yes, although we are zero-dollar purchasers, our personal profit from each robbery does not exceed US$950. According to the law, this is not a crime!"

"Haha, Mr. Inspector, it's not that we don't want to pay taxes to your IRS, it's because the law doesn't allow it!"

"..."

The black people in the room began to feel proud.

When David heard this, he didn't rush to say anything. Instead, he looked at this group of black people who were so complacent that they thought they had found a way.

In fact, strictly speaking, they are right about one thing.

That is, according to current laws, their zero-dollar purchase behavior of no more than 950 US dollars is indeed not an illegal crime.

This would be outrageous in any country in the world, but in the United States it is almost normal.

In fact, this matter starts from 2014.

At that time, California prisons were overcrowded, so they introduced a new rule. If you buy something for zero dollars or less than $950, you will only be sentenced to a misdemeanor at most.

If you plead guilty and have a good attitude, you can go home after receiving some education and some community welfare activities, and basically you will not have to go to jail.

In May 2020, the death of Floyd by police brutality led to black riots across the United States.

Black people took advantage of this incident to fish in troubled waters and looted a large number of stores, which overwhelmed the police and prison systems across the United States.

In the end, this legal provision that originally existed only in California was directly applied to all states across the country. What is even more outrageous is that this time even misdemeanors were abolished.

In other words, as long as your zero-dollar purchase does not exceed US$950, it is not a crime.

This can probably be regarded as compensation for the Floyd incident, so as to calm the anger of black people across the country.

However, this regulation on zero-yuan purchases was only introduced in May 2020.

The IRS’s black tax bill was launched on December 3, 2021.

Therefore, regarding the legal conflicts and loopholes of zero-dollar purchases, the senior officials of the Internal Revenue Service who originally created and launched the black tax bill had already thought of it.

David took out his mobile phone, entered the official website of the IRS, found the Black Tax Act, turned to Section 236, then turned the screen to the black man and said: "According to Section 236 of the Black Tax Act, regarding zero-dollar purchases and us The tax policy, as explained above, takes precedence over the tax policy regardless of the amount!”

"What's the meaning?"

The black people who were still happy suddenly felt bad, and they all frowned and asked.

"This means that your zero-dollar purchase of no more than $950 does not violate the law, but you still have to pay tax to our IRS!"

"This...this is impossible!"

Now the black people understood it, but most people still found it difficult to accept it.

"Mr. Inspector, what if we don't hand it over!"

One of the black men replied slightly angrily.

"Don't pay?"

David's face turned cold and he said coldly: "We will freeze all your accounts. In addition, all your relief funds, unemployment benefits, and other benefits will be stopped!"

"No, why do you stop paying our relief and unemployment benefits? These are benefits given to us by the state. You don't have this power!"

Most of the black people present are either unemployed or unemployed. In addition to zero-dollar purchases, the most important source of income is relief and unemployment benefits.

This news will cut off their several sources of income, which is equivalent to killing them.

"hehe."

David sneered: "Why are you stopping your relief and unemployment benefits? Just because you bastards don't want to pay taxes!"

"Where do you think your relief and unemployment benefits come from?"

"It's not the tax collected by our Internal Revenue Service and then distributed to you!"

"If everyone is like you, evading taxes and unwilling to pay taxes, where will the money come from for the many benefits the state gives you?"

These words left all the black people present speechless.

Although they were unwilling to pay taxes, they had to admit the truth of David's words.

After all, the IRS is the money bag of the United States. If the IRS does not allocate funds, let alone them, the welfare of the entire society will be lost.
