Natasha Sarin, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Economic Policy, published an article last Thursday titled “How Financial Reporting Helps American Workers and Ensures that Top Earners Pay Their Fair Share.” The article attempts to justify spying on every single American to “help the IRS determine whether taxpayers with opaque sources of income are meeting their tax obligations.”
No where in her article does she explain how this spying would help American Workers, unless we assume the taxes used to “support critical initiatives in the Build Back Better agenda” will ultimately get to the workers. And there is zero evidence that any of these programs will help workers in the long run.
