Maybe NONE of us should pay ANY taxes…
By Dean James AMERICAS FREEDOM FIGHTERS –
As AMERICAS FREEDOM FIGHTERS has reported, the IRS is preparing to do something for millions of illegal aliens brought in by Obama’s executive amnesty order — something that will OUTRAGE a lot of taxpaying American citizens.
At least 4 million illegals will be issued Social Security numbers and will be be eligible to receive government “tax refunds” even though they haven’t paid income taxes. Now, congressional number crunchers have put a price tag on these refunds that will come out of the U.S. Treasury and that magic number is close to 2 BILLION FRICKING DOLLARS!!!
McClatchy News Service reports on the dollar-amount finding by the congressional Joint Committee on Taxation:
President Barack Obama’s executive order on immigration will allow people who’ve been working in the country without documents to retroactively file tax returns for the past three years and collectively get about $1.7 billion in refundable tax credits over 10 years.
It’s the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) that would trigger the projected $1.7 billion payout to illegal immigrants. The EITC was set up to help move people dependent on government off welfare rolls and into employment. Obviously, the use of the tax credit essentially to reward illegal immigration was never part of its original intent.
“Those who were working illegally in the United States shouldn’t be rewarded for doing so,’ Senator Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, said in a statement to McClatchy. ‘That would have the effect of allowing retroactive benefits.”
Western Journalism reports:
Earlier this week, The Washington Times reported on a letter to Sen. Grassley from IRS Commissioner John Koskinen in which the agency boss defended paying refunds to illegals who never filed, even if they cheated on their taxes by working “off the books” or with falsified documents.
Koskinen’s explanation and justification relied on technicalities and did not deal with the propriety of providing billions in payouts to non-citizens.
“’Section 32 of the Internal Revenue Code requires an SSN on the return, but a taxpayer claiming the EITC is not required to have an SSN before the close of the year for which the EITC is claimed,’ IRS Commissioner John Koskinen wrote.”
The Times article went on to note that Grassley called that a mockery of the law and said he intends to introduce a bill specifically prohibiting it.
The McClatchy report notes, even if the IRS determined that illegals protected under Obama’s amnesty order were found to have cheated the system, they would likely still receive the so-called refund from the IRS if they file new or amended returns.
“The IRS could audit these returns to guard against fraud, but because the tax returns involve very low income levels, the IRS would not get much bang for the buck with such audits,” said the McClatchy report.
