Imagine the process of assessing and collecting a tax from a single entity.

Now imagine the process of assessing and collecting taxes from 93,000 entities, including enforcing penalties for people who inadequately report or pay.

In this example, the 93,000 entities are people who are already filing tax returns every year.
