The City of Amsterdam fined hundreds of Jewish Holocaust survivors for failing to pay taxes while they were in hiding or in concentration camps. (snip)

The city went after survivors as late as 1947, the report said. (snip)

The documents about this taxation were discovered by Charlotte van den Berg, a 23-year-old university student.

The story was first reported a year ago, but it's interesting nevertheless. The student, Charlotte van den Berg, has made it her business to right this travesty.

Lois Lerner and Harry Reid’s ancestors perhaps?

If not, the Amsterdam officials were at least a role model. But Amsterdam did not use heavily-armed SWAT teams to enforce taxation demands. So give credit to Lerner and Reid for improving on the model.
