You don't wanna fuck with the IRS.

Even the Joker is afraid of the IRS.

As Behind the Bastards pointed out recently in their Kent Hovind episode, the IRS doesn't give a shit about what illegal or immoral activity you commit, they literally just want you to pay taxes on it.

It used to be tax deductable to bribe government officials of foreign governments.

Unrelated, if you get bribed in time with a hooker do you report it based on what she charges or fair market rate or is there a set amount? I feel like someone at the IRS sat down and came up with an answer to this.

It's a separate form complete with nine pages of instructions outlining how to calculate market values based on region and services rendered. The formula isn't helpful, so in the end you just put in half of what you paid and hope you don't get audited.

Must be an interesting audit.

IRS agent: so you put down that you received a "Cincinnati Steamer" as part of your compensation for employing this vendor.

Dude: that's right

IRS agent: please describe what goes into a Cincinnati Steamer so I can assign it to a category or categories. Also do you happen to have her W2s and social security number?

Dude: sure, and no I don't have her paperwork. Surprisingly she didn't share it with me.

Not familiar with that show/movie/whatever, but they aren't wrong. The IRS just wants to be paid. You pay them, they leave you alone. Done.

It's a podcast and it is delightful! In a depressive, horror-inducing kind of way.

They do deep dives are random shitty people throughout history, and occasionally contemporary people like Andrew Tate. Usually it is people like 1940s gangsters, 1990s drug kingpins, King Leopold the 2nd, and fittest gurus from the 1800s.

Don't forget megachurch pastors.
