Last year, the IRS audited just .86 percent of all tax returns, the lowest rate in a decade, according to CNBC. The reason is that while the IRS, due to fewer resources and more responsibilities, is trying to do more with less, it has also resulted in them just doing less. IRS Commissioner John A. Koskinen, during a speech, acknowledged that there have been fewer audits because, simply, there are fewer auditors to do them, said CNBC.
