IRS shuts down mom and pop dressmaker, sells dresses within hours

The unmarked vehicles arrived in the morning. More than 20 armed agents poured out.

Hours later, Mii’s Bridal & Tuxedo was out of business after serving customers for decades. Its entire inventory of wedding gowns and dresses as well as sewing machines and other equipment were sold at auction.

The hastily-called sale held inside the store netted the IRS about $17,000 — not enough to cover the roughly $31,400 in tax debt alleged, court records show. The balance is now likely unrecoverable.

The IRS has its head in a very dark and airless place.

Great job IRS!
You guys are incredible at destroying American's freedom.

They won't go after Sharpton because he would turn it into a race war. The Government are pussies. They will go after the defenseless among us for 31,000 dollars but are inept at recovering 5 million from a race baiting extortionist. If you know anyone that works for the IRS, shun them, the scum bags.

How about all the unreported (til it was found out) income for the Clinton Foundation?
They had to amend their returns to the tune of MILLIONS.
WE, the people would already be in the middle of a 10 year stretch.
But, we are serfs.
Two Sets of Laws protect them now.
Who's going to protect them when "we, the people" hit the streets to straighten things up?
EXACTLY.
Keep cheering.

I can't understand why those people didn't have a tax lawyer work something out with the IRS. I have personally had some problems with the IRS but was able to work out a plan to get them paid and off my back. I can't help but feel there is a lot more to this story than what we are being told in the press. $31,400 in tax debt and they let that happen? I think those immigrant people are hiding a lot of money somewhere and the IRS can't find it and that pissed them off. That couple may be going to jail befor this is over. And by the way I have NO love for the IRS but if you come to this country And think you are going to cheat me and our government I want you in jail then thrown out of the country.

Democrats still control 90% of government and always will.

They do not bother people with legal knowledge because they do not want a fight.
