techniques like these to go after fraud. Given Romney's taxes it might be a good time to circle the biggest 500 for special attention. It would be worth paying big dollars to some of the finest tax lawyers and accountants (perhaps we could pay them by commission of taxes recovered). Also they could be used to craft iron clad legislation and tax rules.

One of Greece's biggest problems is getting individuals to pay.
