Well yeah if they tried to collect tax from Jackie Chan, he'd just use martial arts to beat them up and keep his money. It's the non-violent way for him to dodge taxes.

If they ever do make a film about this I hope it's done like one of the Jeremy Podewska-directed episodes of Rubicon. Where something most people think is a really big deal is happening but it's all so mundane to the people actually doing it.

"Yo the foreign minister of Azerbaijan's sister needs another million euros hiving out of the department"
"gently caress sakes it's months until their next aid package to Yemen goes through, how are we going to hide it this time"

etc.

-the king of saudi arabia, and every other middle eastern tyrant guy on there will kill any locals who comment on this and continue to business with the US

-any american politician names who mattered, say ending with clinton, have been redacted

-4chan will have a lot of new people to prank call
