The greater the numbers affected (forced into non-compliance) the better. That's how the situation will get sorted out. If only a few can be singled out, then it means that the morass continues with business as usual. It can't do this forever though. I expect collapse (hopefully not a hard crash) early in the next decade. If you get your money out of the bank you'll be better prepared to protect yourself against panicked IRS officials who see their ship of state sinking and will be in a powerful bargaining position. Just make sure you stay locked and loaded because you can't bargain from a position of weakness.
PS - the safety is in the numbers. I never said that there would be nothing to worry about, but to be realistic, the IRS will be most interested in the top crypto earners, not those running Steemit accounts with pitiful rewards such as us. They are in the business of generating as much profit as they can for government which means that they will probably leave small fry such as ourselves alone. They have much bigger problems to worry about at the moment.
