taxes on $10k bank withdrawl?

If I withdrawl more than $10,000 from my bank account at a time, do they notify the IRS? If so, would i be taxed on this? I know the IRS likes to steal allittle bit every time money gets moved around, I'm trying to avoid this.

    Generally the IRA does not get involved with payments of over 10K for a car or down payment on a house. They do get involved when more than 10K is put into a bank. This is partially because of laundering drug money.

    The IRS does not steal your money. Congress sets the rules. You don't like something write your Congressman. Banks report transactions all the time. Unless you are guilty of something there is no reason to worry.

    If it is a regular bank account, no.

    If it is an IRA, HSA, etc., yes.

    The reporting on such is to prevent money laundering and other illegal activities. No taxing.
