I like how they pretend that Dick and Jane can hold all those places up at gun point and not get caught. Especially come income tax time when they are paying the bills with no income. LMAO Unrealistic garbage.
shareHave you ever heard of suspension of disbelief? It's a movie! And it's hilarious.
shareIt's a movie for crying out loud!!
shareSince when does the IRS track my bills? The only things they know are from my W2 forms, and a few other things like my bank reporting interest earnings. Have you ever actually had a job?
shareThat's right. I'm from Canuckistan...you know, America lite...and the tax system is similar.
If I was out robbing or dealing drugs they wouldn't know S&*t. The only way there would be an investigation is if I was making really serious coin. It would show in my lifestyle and it would draw the attention of the police. At their level no one would care.
BTW, I've heard that in America you can put drug dealer, pimp, hitman on your tax form as employment and as long as you declare your income...and pay your taxes, of course...they won't pass on the info to anyone. Is that true? It's said that that info is privileged and they can't share it. It sounds kind of farfetched but any U.S. citizens know the truth?
Regarding the movie, I think they were parodying the incredibly corrupt state of corporate America. I found it mildly amusing, myself.
Regular bills probably no one would notice but the mortgage will file interest paid to the IRS which might throw up some flags if you reported no income.
shareSo don't claim you have no income. Ever hear of self-employment? The IRS doesn't show up at your home to make sure you're actually doing something when you claim to have a home-based business.
shareSince it's not in the movie, we have to assume they weren't filing all the paperwork for a fraudulent business. They do show up at your home in the case of an audit.
shareYou're reaching. They're two intelligent, college-educated professionals who pulled a string of successful robberies and eventually stole $400 million from the crooked boss, with a little help. You really think they couldn't come up with a few pieces of paperwork? I've owned an S-corporation and an LLC. There aren't a lot of forms you need to fill out to keep the IRS off your back.

shareIts a comedy. Chill.
