I worked a lot under the table this year. My "employer" didn't report the work to the IRS. I should be okay with getting away with not reporting that income right? I don't want to pay all those taxes.

Well, you probably need to disclose your income somehow. So I’d be reluctant to ignore the idea that you need to pay taxes in this situation. It sounds like you’re working for a business, and I think it's normal to report income from that business. You also should report income that you’ve earned from your personal activities or hobbies.
