Would not expect anything less from 1) an idiot-ridden administration filled with corruption and 2) an IRS headed by a tax cheat “genius” who could not even figure out TurboTax. =.=
Yes indeed! They "very seriously" find ways to cover their behinds, therefore of course the spokesman didn't answer the questions.
We'll hold our breath NOT for the follow up story on this one.
Lamp posts.
Was that wrong? ;’) Thanks jazusamo. Hey, taxes are for people who work for a living, so get off their backs.
hey..taxes are for Flyover Country peons and peasants..
I just got a tax bill today for almost $3,000 on top of what they’ve already gotten. I’ve never had this done before and too angry to read the full RULE BOOK. BA#TARDS!!! I can no longer afford them. I’s soooooo pissed!
That doesn’t surprise me in the least.
The stories I could tell having to deal with mostly idiots in the IRS. 95% of them aren’t qualified for the job. Half of them are probably not qualified for any job especially one dealing with taxes and money.
And don’t get me started on their attitude and lack of respect for the taxpayer. I couldn’t count the number of times they have hung up on me for simply asking a question they couldn’t answer.
The few that are helpful and respectful don’t stay around too long and who could blame them. Cleaning out that maggot infested hell hole would go a long way in making government more efficient.
IRS Misfired on Plug-in Tax Credit Claims, U.S. Government Audit Discovers
About 20 percent of U.S. tax credits for plug-in electric vehicles and alternative-fuel vehicles were filed in error, according to a government audit.
The credits are important to companies such as General Motors Co. and Nissan Motor Co., which have entered the plug-in market with the $41,000 Chevrolet Volt and the $32,780 Nissan Leaf, respectively. Buyers of those vehicles can claim up to $7,500 from the federal government, and the companies are relying on the credits to be competitive on price with gasoline- based models.
Most of the erroneous credits, according to the audit, went to taxpayers who sought benefits for vehicles such as Hyundai Motor Co.s Sonata and GMs Buick Enclave that didnt qualify for tax breaks. Prisoners and IRS employees were among those who erroneously claimed credits.
IRS Pledges to Stomp Out ‘Egregious’ Violations of Politicking Rules

The Chronicle of Philanthropy, April 18, 2008
The Internal Revenue Service says that in this election year it is making extensive efforts to educate charities and churches about federal law that bans their political campaign activity.
(except for black churches where Democrats openly campaign)
Having had a large amount of inter-action with this particular gov’t agency...I put forward disembowelment as the appropriate penalty.
Guy I know who worked at KC could not get his AA employees to do their jobs, so he retired early, here is hoping that the election of “the one” has motivated them to work.
This is why Charlie Rangel should be running the IRS.
