    I hope they roll at least half of the $38M into more enforcement efforts. Hire more agents, investigate more tax cheats, hire more agents.

      That would be like having the police funding themselves with inconceivable from tickets and eventually bite everyone in the ass.

      Funding should absolutely increase, but should not be tied to the amount recovered.
