American tax officials

Chapter 21 Are you afraid of being deported?

Black Tax Act?

In other words, the purpose of David and his companion's visit today is to get them to pay taxes?

But what a joke! They're engaged in illegal activities like stealing cars, not a legal business. They still have to pay taxes to the IRS.

At this point, neither Miyano Masashi nor any other island nation could accept this logic.

This gave them the feeling that "this is outrageous, this is ridiculous."

Because in their country, official agencies like the IRS would never deal with these criminals in an official capacity.

Ignoring what these people were thinking, David continued, "Alright, I've stated my purpose for being here. What do you all want to say?"

Miyano Masashi's eyes narrowed into slits as he said in a grim tone, "What if we don't pay?"

"Not paying?"

David's face turned cold, and he said emotionlessly, "Everyone here will have their accounts frozen, and any assets of value will be liquidated until taxes and penalties are paid in full!"

"Furthermore, as punishment for resisting law enforcement, we will imprison and try you, and after serving your sentences, deport you and banish you from the United States forever!"

The IRS has a lot of power, and these car thieves are from an island nation, so taking them down would be too easy.

Even without freezing and liquidating their assets, just the deportation alone would be enough to give these people a hard time.

After all, they've come all this way just to make a living in this capitalist land.

as predicted.

Upon hearing that not only would their accounts be frozen, but they would also be imprisoned and deported, many of the island nation's attendees panicked.

Many of them have families to support.

Judging from David's tone, if they were really deported, it wouldn't just be them alone; their entire families would be deported as well.

They had finally settled down in this city, and no one wanted to slink back to the island nation.

Faced with such a threat, Miyano Masashi was seething with anger, but he suppressed it and retorted, "America is a country that respects human rights. Are you sure you can do this?!"

David chuckled at this and retorted sarcastically, "Yes, America is indeed a country that values ​​human rights, but first, you have to be American citizens; second, you have to be law-abiding citizens; and finally, you have to not owe our IRS any taxes. Only then can you talk about human rights!"

Miyano Masashi, who was already furious, almost ground his teeth to powder after hearing these words.

He could tell, of course, that David was mocking them for being just islanders and car thieves, and that they had no right to talk about human rights with the IRS.

But upon closer reflection, he really couldn't refute it.

Since ancient times, the character for "official" has always had two mouths.

David is now acting under the guise of the IRS, which naturally puts him on the moral high ground and makes him the side of justice.

Since they were engaged in illegal activities, they naturally became the opposing side.

Miyano Masashi calmed himself down and gave the woman in the leather jacket a wink. The woman nodded in understanding and then turned and headed up the stairs.

Finally, he turned to David and said, "We brothers have come all the way from the ocean to here, doing risky jobs. We work ourselves to the bone and don't earn much money. After bribing everyone, we barely have any left at the end of the month. Why don't you go find Dieter and his men? They are the ones who are truly valuable to you!"

"You don't need to try and shift the blame. Dieter is within our lake district, so we naturally won't let him get away with it, but we won't let you people get away with it either!"

David knew, of course, who Dieter was referring to—Dieter of the Omaha family.

This guy just wanted to see how the IRS treated the Omaha family, using that as a point of rebuttal. How could he not see through that little scheme?

Miyano Masashi was stunned.

He had originally thought that David would be more cautious after moving out of Dieter.

In that case, he would indeed have reason to refute it.

After all, according to the provisions of the tax blacklisting law, people like Dieter are the ones who should pay taxes the most. But the IRS doesn't target him but instead targets us. Isn't this really bullying the weak and fearing the strong, and taking advantage of honest people?

In this way, it can also be seen as a sarcastic jab at the IRS.

To Miyano Masashi's surprise, David didn't take Dieter seriously at all, and even threatened to make sure he wouldn't let him go.

This is truly outrageous!

You should know that Dieter not only wields absolute power in the Lake District, but he's also a member of the Omaha family!

What is the background of the Omaha family?

Those were Native Americans enjoying all sorts of privileges in Las Vegas, and their family also had close ties with important figures such as the mayor and council members.

Does the IRS really have the power to take action against people?

You dare to mess with them again?

"Besides, you said your brothers work themselves to the bone but barely make any money. Do you think we're so easily fooled?"

Miyano Masashi paused, then replied, "What do you mean?"

David pointed at Yutaro Ono, who was still covering his face, and said, "In just this past month, he has earned more than $20000 in commissions from stealing cars."

"And him too!" David pointed to Nakamura Ota and said, "He also received a commission of over $20000."

"And him, he...he..."

Upon arriving here, David had already used his golden touch to scrutinize the islanders present.

Leaving aside Nakamura, Ota, and Yutaro Ono, other people in the island nation earn at least $10000 a month from this line of work, and some even earn $3 or $4.

Even in a highly developed country like the United States, such an income would definitely be considered high income. It's nothing like what Miyano Masato said, that he works himself to the bone every month to earn just this little bit.

Hearing their income details being pointed out, the Japanese people present were both surprised and a little afraid.

The more detailed the investigation the IRS conducts, the more it demonstrates the IRS's power to manipulate them at will!

And as David just said.

The IRS can arbitrarily seize their accounts and assets. Now that their income information is being investigated in such detail, these accounts and assets can no longer be hidden.

If they really go head-to-head with the IRS, they might end up as fish on a chopping board.

Ignoring what these people were thinking, David continued, "Look, you've all made a fortune since you arrived on this land. Now it's just a matter of paying some taxes. What's there to complain about?"
