Seems that most all the other candidates are idiots for not bringing this up and saying they’ll do something about it. No, idiots like Yeb! think we WANT to give the fruits of our labor to the invaders.

"He can point to a 2011 audit by the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration. It confirms that individuals who are not authorized to work in the United States were paid $4.2 billion in refundable credits."

So let me get this straight. Illegal individuals (aliens, people, etc.) are working in our country, do not have a valid social security numbers, and yet are entitled to refunds? Why are these individuals not in jail for tax fraud? Yet those who pay their taxes with a valid Social Security number are the main culprits for whatever crime the IRS sees fit to accuse them of?

So is the world upside down or do we have a government that is corrupt and illegal? Four cents on the dollar for a tea party on Boston Harbor, and now we have this? God help us!!!!!!!! Wake up people, please.

Outrageous, but not surprising. These agencies need to be purged.

Incredible. I can’t believe even FOX is shilling so hard. I guess they have adopted Pelosi economics. She said every dollar given to welfare recipients was worth almost a dollar and a half to the economy. Since ~70% of illegals are on some form of gov benefits, FOX is taking the total, adding half again as much to it, and crediting illegals with injecting that much cash into the economy.

If we killed all the IRS money to illegals and the welfare handouts to illegals, we could fund SS with no problems...

Why isn’t congress in jail for setting up a system in which this is legal? Can you imagine how much antacids Boehner and McConnell are going to need, as Trump continues to educate the country re congress’ sellout perfidy?

I know that Trump has some serious security , however , I am extremely concerned for his safety . He has made many enemies and we’re still over a year away from the election .

Isn’t that the greatest thing you have heard? Why should our money be handed out to illegal aliens? You can’t get there with a good brain.

Laughing at us all the way to a bank in Mexico. Years ago, the second largest Mexican GNP was US money being sent back there. With gas down, it’s certainly moving to closer to #1.

Thank you. I do not know why. You missed the most important point: four cents on the dollar. That was the reason we fought a war, now where are we? Another is yet to fulminate.

My favorite is the bogus child tax credits. See the example at http://www.wral.com/investigators-child-tax-credit-allows-fraudsters-a-chance-to-cheat/11697176/

My favorite part:

“These applications for ITINs coming from the same address, thousands of applications … or thousands of returns coming from the same address – that screams fraud,” said former federal prosecutor Clay Wheeler, who specializes in tax fraud cases and currently works for Kilpatrick, Townsend and Stockton law firm in Raleigh. “It looks to me like the ITIN system has a lot of holes in it that need to be fixed … You can't help but be angry about that kind of fraud.”

A chart in the Treasury Inspector General’s July 2011 report shows a rapid rise in tax refunds that went to ITIN holders, who were four times more likely to request the child tax refund compared with those with Social Security numbers. In five years, those refunds quadrupled. Despite that, the IRS didn’t budge and said it planned to keep paying until Congress tells it to stop.

I believe the IRS has ruled that they are ENTITLED to those refunds under current US law and IRS regulations.
