I was picked on in eighth grade. So I gave myself an additional deduction of $5000.

To be fair to the IRS here, its not that they looked at the credits and approved them, it is just that the IRS takes 98% of the people at their word. Still, they are a bunch of freedom-hating jackasses and the whole thing should be done away with in favor of a National Sales tax, collected by the States (so that there is less redundancy in tax collection).

This is some serious tax fraud. Of course, we'd probably be asking too much to expect prosecutions - that would be insensitive.

The Internal Revenue Service mistakenly paid out more than $30 million to tax filers seeking nonexistent slavery tax credits in 2000 and 2001, according to a Treasury Department investigation.

Mistakenly?

I thought that's what refunds are all about. You know, reparations to Tax Slaves? Granted the reparations ain't much but hey, the more slave you are the bigger that refund should be. Tax cuts for the rich,(the real slaves in the system):

Walter Williams, World Net Daily, 10-25-2000

According to the most recent U.S. Treasury Department figures, in 1997 the top 1 percent of income-earners (those with income of $250,000 and higher) paid 33 percent of all federal income taxes. The top 5 percent of income-earners ($108,000 and over) paid 52 percent, and the top 50 percent ($36,000 and over) paid 96 percent of income taxes. Guess what the bottom 50 percent of income earners paid?

But then I think it's time to change tax systems myself:

First, Friday night late is when the real, real embarrassing news is relased by the feds so this has got to have a grain of truth in it.

Second, you mean all I had to do this year was pencil in $80k on line 33 and the check was in the mail.

Unf---king believable!!!!

Starting Monday, the IRS will be begin levying a $500 fine on taxpayers who do not withdraw the claim if they have been caught.

I don't believe I'm off the mark to say that whites would never be offered such a pass--they'd be prosecuted for tax fraud.

This is really ugly. I hope it is not a portent of things to come.

At a minimum, we'll have to rein in the diversity coordinators at certain IRS processing centers. Things may have gotten a little too diverse in some of them.

No doubt. And since when does a "regulated agency" declare penalties ? Who elected these MFs ?

Sorry. That credit only applies if your great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandfather was picked on.

That would also explain the life-ruining harassment of the IRS
against good US citizens who pay their taxes but are conservative.

That could be applied to almost any U.S. Federal Government Agency.

I sure feel safer, knowing that a U.S. Federal Government Agency
is now in charge of airport security. < /sarcasm>
