re: #137 DangerMan

- yes, not everyone needs to file taxes
- most adults who earn money do
- there are legal and $ penalties for not filing taxes - depending on why

- so yes, while not filing taxes is illegal, it doesn’t necessarily subject you to criminal penalties.

BUT, and this is a big BUT:

- Tax evasion is a criminal offense that occurs when an individual fails to file taxes despite knowing that there is a requirement to file.

Just ask Al Capone
