How about this.........
In 2011, the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration found that “individuals who are not authorized to work in the United States” and therefore did not have a valid Social Security number were still able to obtain billions in Additional Child Tax Credits by filing returns with an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number. Specifically the Internal Revenue Service watchdog found that unauthorized individuals received $4.2 billion refundable credits in Processing Year 2010. Tuesday evening, Sessions attempted to force Majority Leader Harry Reid allow amendments the budget agreement. Sessions hoped to attach his amendment to the deal — which would have closed the loophole by requiring a Social Security number to claim the refundable portion of the child tax credit and restore military retirement benefits. Sessions’ motion failed on a 46 – 54 party line vote, with North Carolina Sen. Kay Hagan crossing the aisle as the lone Democrat to vote with the Republicans. “Reid’s majority just voted to keep pension cut for vets instead of cutting welfare payments to illegal aliens,” a Sessions aide emailed.

Location: In The Land of Cotton | But, they get to deduct their special "tools" because they need them in their line of work. What a bunch of bunk. I watched that. The man has 600+ workers. He said they deserve it. If I am correct, not all counties in NV even have legalized prostitution. And, not all states do. So, this is one thing that an elected official from NV got passed. Our tax code is now specifically for one state. Shows how screwed up the system is.
On CJE's post, yes, I read that too. How disguisting that we have elected officials who are trying to sway one group of leachers and earn their trust. Not giving veterans their due, but illegals the chance to get over $3K on income tax returns. Personally, I think America is going to hell in a hand basket. And, quickly. |

| Of course brothels need a tax break. The politicians need love too, since no one can stand them otherwise. |

This has been going on forever; it just has gotten out of control with BO.
We need term limits (then we wouldn't have to worry about their retirement pkgs) and government employee pay raises need to approved by the voters. All duplicate programs need to be deleted. The government needs to have an ax taken to it. When you are bored go look at thee budget and see all the depts and sub-depts that are funded and how much they get - it is totally mind boggling! |

Location: Kansas | They spent nearly half a million "testing" the mentality of Tea Party members. Seriously! The amusing part is they found all who were tested to be a cut above the norm in intelligence. I'm sure that wasn't the answer they were looking for.
