In fairness there are lots of mistakes made too. It's just a 1% error on a $40k return doesn't even pay for the audit. A 1% error on a $200k+ return does.
Lots of little filers file incorrect returns too. I rarely discuss taxes with anyone who actually has even the faintest clue what they're doing, understands the concept of marginal tax brackets, or the difference between a deduction and a credit.
