Dont know if you are seeing stories in your area, but the IRS is taking peoples refunds on this years taxes to pay for what their parents owe the government from years past.
How the hell can the IRS do that? I didn't agree to pay ANYTHING, maybe my parents did, but I didn't sign on any dotted line about agreeing to pay my parents old debts!
That is one of the things that made America so different from other countries around the world! In other countries, you were relegated to a life of debt and poverty, because your mom or dad or sometimes even grandparents and great-grandparents were in so much debt that your family lineage had to repay said debt before you could actually make money on your own. But not here! Not in America!
This is more redistribution of wealth crap under Obama and it has to stop before it becomes a serious precedent! Congress is supposed to control 90% of these things, but they have given away 99% of that control to the Executive branch by creating all these bureaucracies and agencies which are controlled by the Executive branch!
We need a serious house cleaning and a departure from all of the alphabet groups and make Congress do their damn jobs! If they were doing their jobs instead of creating an agency to handle them for Congress, do you think Congress would have time to have hearings on steroids in baseball? Or grill CEO's on how a company spends their profits? It is BEYOND ridiculous at this point!

Apparently, the Farm Bill had such language in it...
Imagine—going after WORKING Americans for their parents ‘debts’ —not proven—and using that money to pay for more people on welfare & food stamps. Foodstamps originate in the Farm Bills.
Most people would not have any records from years past involveing the last days/months/years of their parents. I sure would demand a complete accounting of how they arrived at such a seizure of any of my money.

Actually the IRS is taking the refunds for the overpayment the Social security made decades ago. In some cases the SS doesn’t even know how much it overpaid
