is it really smart poking the buffalo with a stick?
i hope you are at least posting this behind TOR and if not that the tax man won't subpoena the forum to disclose your ip to make an example.

They would still have to prove that I owe them something.

The burden is on the taxpayer (you) to prove that your tax return is accurate.

if the IRS feels like your standard of living is significantly above your income/assets then they will audit you and they have great investigative ability.

It is why you don't want to be audited and you want to keep as much documents and proofs possible in case you are audited

This is all assuming you exercise federal privilege of some kind in order to earn money.  It's called an "excise" tax for a good reason.
