Betcha there are codes in the I.R.S. systems that hide or prevent investigation of those who are federal employees.
They do not ‘decline to pay’. They can’t pay right at the moment, but they’re not going to get off. They are required by the IRS to come up with a plan to get caught up, and pay interest on the unpaid balance.
Federal employees owed more in delinquent taxes last year than any year in the past decade —
Compare this with non-fed employees.
Times are tougher lately.
Welfare class, not paying at all, probably not delinquent (ha ha).
Laws are just for the suckers. Not for the special class. Haven’t they proved this enough yet?

They should also face disciplinary action for ‘Failure to meet just debts’.
Federal employees prove it pays to be a slacker feds wink.
I got zapped by the IRS last year. It turned out that one of my 401Ks sent me TWO 1099-R for a previous year, but I only ever received one, and as such, didn’t think to look for a second.
The IRS got it, though. We looked, found the problem, entered a payment plan, and I paid double or more every month. 7 months later: paid off.
Why can’t Feds do that ??
