Yeah. I have a masters in tax. When I first started taking courses, the profs (all tax lawyers) told us that the IRS goes after a big name every tax season to make an example and to frighten the rest of the population into paying taxes. I used to know someone who wouldn’t take any allowable deductions or credits out of fear of the IRS.

Today it is Lohan, tomorrow, especially with hundreds (1000s?) of new IRS employees tending to the Obamacare rules, it could be any of us - even more so if you are a small business owner. There’s nothing to laugh at here.
