I think a lot of people would object to a system that reported every detail of your life to the IRS.

So presently the government gives you a birth certificate for your baby, and you go to the government to apply for a marriage license, but you are worried that the government might find out you've married and had a baby? You want to have to do extra paperwork to avoid accidentally committing tax fraud?
If you have to report every detail to them anyways, what exactly changes besides making it easier?
