Sure must've hurt to lose the Olympic billions, but this is beyond staggering.

Will they look into any Obama or Daley cronies???

He's not from Chicago...but here's one.

Shrug. People get what they voted for.

I like the part about being able to deduct the cost of your own brown shirt if you are wearing it when you rat the guy out.

Didn’t the left bash Bush for his proposal for citizens to report suspicous terrorist activity?

Wait until they find out that 90% of the tax cheaters are Democrats, sticking it to the man. Oddly enough, Conservatives are the kind of people who are against tax increases, but will always comply with the law, while many of the liberals I know are for tax increases, but then refuse to pay them on the grounds that "everybody cheats."

I base this knowledge on my own debates with liberals who always tell me I should pay more taxes, and then freely admit that they own two homes and claim their place of residence in the lower tax jurisdiction, but register their cars in the one without the personal property tax. They further have two jobs, deduct all their nanny expenses as "daycare" costs(Oh, and they don't pay FICA or Medicare for them, because they are "daycare" and not employees). They deduct their home offices at 100% use even though they work in Washington DC and are never home.

And yet, it's the "rich" who need to pay more of "their fair share." :-(

So you get a call and someone is looking for a friend of yours that owes on student loans. Would you give them your friends contact info? Well I did. Does that make me a bad person?

Wonder what would happen if you turned in those companies employing illegals. An IRS audit would turn that up pretty quick wouldn’t it?

Maybe this guy?

[[Chicago and Cook County residents aren’t the only ones about to get shocking tax news; the city is debuting a “tax whistle-blower” plan that could turn neighbor against neighbor in Chicago’s business community.]]

Isn’t that just special? Not so long ago- people who didn’t mind hteir own business risked being shot for putting hteir noses where they didn’t belong- now, we’re apparently moving toward a communist style lifestyle where neighbor rats on neighbor- hoping to be rewarded by the government for being a good little citizen- Poland and other countries just released millions of documents during communism where NOONE was who they seemed- friends turned on friends, brothers turned on brothers- ‘Close’ friends learned their buddy was reporting to the Kremlin on them the whole time- and apparently, that’s exactly what we’re headed for- These frigging democrats think comunism is such a wodnerful system, but ask ANYONE who went through the experience in Russia, Germany, Poland etc just how ‘wonderful’ it really was- It stunk to high heaven! But alas- the dems are horny to lord it over EVERYONE

Sounds like a trial run for a National program to take effect if we ever have a real genuine “Tax Rebellion”.

[GeorgiaDawg32]

so this is basically for a different business to rat on the owner of a business for not paying taxes..I can see it now..

The owner of the ABC Widget Company doesn’t like the fact that the XYZ Widget Company has built a better mouse trap. So, he calls in the tax collectors with no knowledge that anything illegal is actually happening putting his competitor at a disadvantage since he now has to deal with legal fees, false charges etc..

Same thing can happen with a disgruntled employee making life miserable for a boss he/she doesn’t get along with..

Wonderful..
