It's not really that much money, the point is to make sure you know they can do whatever the fuck they want to you. Remember when Obammy nominated (((Timothy Geithner))) for Secretary of the Treasury and it turned out he though $500k wasn't income (he got paid that for a speech) and owed the IRS for taxes on that? He paid it without penalty, try owing the IRS $150k and see how you like jail....
I think the IRS immediately fines you if you do a zero withholding for the year. So if you say, ill keep all my money now, invest it, and pay taxes later, you will get fined for doing this. When some rich political asshole does it though, no problem here
