87,000 agents is roughly 30 per county in the US. If an auditor can do 1 audit per day and works 240 days per year, that's 7,000 more audits in your county every year...70,000 more over 10 years. I'm sure that audits almost always result in taxes due - whether they really are due or not. That's a lot of skimming more money out of everyone's paycheck.

How does the IRS know you are not paying according to the law? The only way they know that is if you don't pay any taxes but somehow they have your name. Or, if they audit you. The purpose of auditing is to check a small number of tax payers and put a little fear in the rest.
How old are you, Charles? You are certainly naive!

They will make money on the citizens that don’t have the money to pay a lawyer to fight them.

Had a relative that worked in that division of the IRS. They do audit them; they just blame their accountants/advisor for the "mistake". With deep pockets an attorney works out a deal and a check gets written, and it all goes quietly away.
They're not treated like the avg citizen, definitely a double standard here in the good olde USA.

Does anyone actually believe “THE OLD MAN” that IRS is only going after wage earners in the OVER $400,000.00 bracket

The government is taxing and regulating the average citizen to the point that they own us We are being controlled to the point that we have lost our rights

All said and done, it wouldn't surprise me if 60% of your earnings go to taxes.

All I can say is, read my profile.

I don't believe it takes 87,000 more IRS agents to do the task, not saying there not understaffed. I strongly believe that what were seeing are 86,000 more federal cops farmed out to what ever political agenda, FBI or ATF, is going on at that time if the democratic party were to win. Guess time will tell what the outcome is

When all is said and done it is closer to 95-99%. Everything at every step is taxed in some manner.

Not true. They will go back to the well that always has water. Was surprised to see that you live in NC with those liberal thoughts until I saw Asheville. That explains it, liberal hippieville. I bet you live trap coyotes neuter them and turn them loose.
