Soooooo.....the Feds are worried about $245,000 that some people may have received so that they didn’t go hungry but really have no real worry that we just pissed away $600 million on a website that an Atari Cartridge works better than.

$245,000/$600,000,000 = .0004

It’s not the Feds, it is the State of Wisconsin.

And I can't wait to read articles about Obama's Police re-collecting the BILLIONS mis-appropriated to Illegal Aliens.

Bungling bureaucrats dole out billions in tax credits to illegal immigrants

The “additional child tax credit” was created to help out those who make too little to qualify for the full child tax credit. The ACTC is refundable, meaning that even if the taxpayer doesn’t owe income tax, he or she could get a payout the IRS.

That becomes an avenue for fraud, particularly when combined with illegal immigrant workers, whose use of the tax credit has jumped from 796,000 filers in 2005 to 1.5 million in 2008 and 2.3 million in 2010, according to the IRS‘ official auditor.

The IRS has tried to limit how it issues ITINs, hoping to crack down on how much it pays out in fraudulent tax credits. The numbers are now valid for only five years, and require a stricter review of identity documents.

But abuses still abound for existing ITINs, Mr. North argues.

Investigators identified one address in Atlanta where 23,994 ITIN-related tax refunds were sent — including 8,393 refunds deposited to a single bank account. Mr. North said those were pretty good indications of fraud.

Yeah, like that will ever happen, but we're concerned about an average over-appropriation of $118 per federal employee.....SMH!!

“so that they didn’t go hungry”

You have to be joking!

If missing one paycheck means you go hungry someone needs to take a look at their spending habits. I sure has hell don't want them working in the Federal government!
