Wesley Snipes is in jail, yet Timmy Geithner gets to be Treasury Secretary.
Well, I suspect they go after Hispanics because many are illegals or tax dodgers. And the go after blacks because many of them have been taught to sucker the government any way they can.
Same reason there are a disproportionate number of blacks in prison. Not because of their race or skin color, but because of their culture. Which is largely the result of a welfare system that encourages broken families and criminal activities.
In my line of work I have an opportunity to view the tax returns for people from all walks of life. I can say without hesitation that it is rare that you find a return from these two communities that is not fraudulent. The primary problem is that they list as “dependents” everyone and anything the can. I say Hispanic return yesterday where he had listed eight “dependents” but only had one child.....LOL.
The "risk" is $50 billion at the greatest.
The other $16 trillion in taxable income is given only 70% of the audits.
Clue about the IDs on the EITC folks.
Several years ago, a friend who is a nationally published investigative journalist, invited me to go along to his Atlanta interview of two female IRS whistleblowers.
Among serious allegations of MAJOR sexual harassment by male superiors – who were routinely promoted to higher positions and/or transferred in order to display their genitals to NEW female subordinates – we were told of the “Dialing for Dollars” program then – and apparently STILL – a routine practice.
Any agent behind in his/her “collections QUOTAS” (which we’ve been assured by IRS do NOT exist) would rummage their “inventory” (their quaint name for taxpayers in their grasp – er – jurisdiction) for lower middle income individuals with foreign or Hispanic surnames. The agent would phone these individuals, advising them that errors in their returns indicated that they STILL owed the IRS money. The amounts were kept at or under $500.00 on the basis that it would cost the taxpayer considerably more in funds and/or time away from a low to moderate income job to contest it.
In 9 cases out of 10, the taxpayer meekly sent a check just as the “massa” in Washington has conditioned us to do.
Is this a great country or what???
PS: One of those whistleblowers, Sherry Jackson, is ill and in prison for some trumped up charge for having the AUDACITY to speak out.
