Who are the morons who think thieves are going to pay taxes of what they steal?
The rule is real and it's included in the IRS's 2021 federal income tax guide. ... “If you steal property, you must report its fair market value in your income in the year you steal it unless you return it to its rightful owner in the same year,” the guide says.
Keep voting for a massive expanding bureaucracy and this is the type of idiocy you will get. They want to hire another 80k IRS employees to monitor every dime you spend and somehow think the criminals are going to pay taxes on their ill gotten gains. They should be focusing on people like Pelosi instead.
