You're the one who brought the IRS, a concrete institution, into this hypothetical discussion, talking about "just [giving] them more money and resources to do their job, which would include wealth evaluation." Okay? So when I asked something like, how would this work, because this is such a hand-wavey answer as to be a non-answer entirely (how would they determine wealth evaluation? Sounds to me like you're saying, they just would), you couldn't answer.

The reality is, like the sibling comment says, just proposing a simple solution doesn't work, that's not the hard part. The hard part is actually exploring and understanding the problem of what actually happens were an institution such as the IRS be assessing wealth for taxation.
