We're talking about a hypothetical future anyway, whether it be guillotining oligarchs, full on communism with no private property, or my proposed middle ground between the current shitshow and a total "no private property" totalitarian state. IRS could be pretty competent, but they lack funding, and the tax code itself is riddled with loopholes.
Out of any place the US government could invest, IRS has one of the better returns. You invest a dollar and get several back. Mostly from rich tax evaders
