    White collar crime, like tax evasion, is never going to be taken seriously by the public because it is boring. Welfare fraud, while minuscule, is easy to get the majority of Americans angry over.

    True dat.

    I worked for a white collar criminal and no one blinked about what he did because there were no readily apparent victims of his crimes. Some pissed off banks and the IRS definitely wanted to keep in touch with him, but overall......No one really cared.

    Side note- white collar criminals go to "Club Fed" type prisons. It's basically Time Out For Buffy work farms.

    While the earned income tax credit is the government's most effective anti-poverty program, it is also the most subject to fraud of all IRS administered taxes. So, it makes sense that it also has the highest audit rate. Let's be honest, a low end audit is pretty easy compared with a high end tax payer's audit. I've been through many a corporate audit and it feels like a full time job. In fact when I worked for a major electric utility we had a full time tax audit department staffed with one attorney, two CPAs, one paralegal and one clerk. So, auditing for them was a full time job for five people plus the IRS had two full time auditors assigned to that one company. The 500 or so biggest companies in America are all under continuous audit. Some big tax payers don't get continuous audits, but they do get audited most years.
