Automated Levy takes over

The IRS computer has now evolved into an early stage Matrix

With fewer and fewer IRS Revenue Officers on the street to handle collection by issuing levies the IRS has turned to the automated levy for collection of past due income taxes. Last year the IRS issued over 2,000,000 levies. Bank levy and wage levy dominated the levies on tax payers seeking help for their tax problems. My guess is that the numbers for 2005 will be even greater.
