What this article conveniently overlooks is the distinction between the high-income person who takes aggressive tax positions to minimize the tax money they pay on their income, and the low-income person who pays little or no income tax and instead receives refundable Earned Income and Child Tax credits.
It's not like the IRS is "going after" poor people who are trying to evade paying their taxes; they are trying their best to carry out the Congressional mandate to administer a welfare system via the tax collection process while countering the massive fraud that such easy handouts attracts.
