Hey...stop doggin' on the illegals. They're entitled to the same constitutional rights as you are, young man.
Undocumented workers people, get it right.
I actually posted a link to this in another thread. I've said it before, calling an illegal alien an "undocumented immigrant" is like calling a drug dealer an "undocumented pharmacist"...
My dad has been telling me that this credit is basically welfare for years, and that the people who get it, basically pay zero taxes at all. I'm torn on this issue. On one hand, I think that it sounds reasonable to allow the IRS to check for legal status before dolling out money. On the other, smarter, stronger hand, I think it is terrifying to give a government agency even more power, especially based on some stupid welfare law like this, and instead the law should be changed and the IRS severely reduced or even just eliminated.
I don't know if any of you have dealt with the IRS like I have, but they are terrible, terrible people and there is nothing that you can do about it.
For those who think I'm being vague, because I was, you can go on a payment plan with the IRS to pay back your taxes. It costs something like $50 - $75 to be put onto the plan. The IRS apparently thinks that it's just fucking hilarious, to send you back your payments, then send you a letter demanding that you pay, then when you call them and ask what the deal is, they say, "I see you've been taken off the payment plan, but I can't figure out why. BUT, for only $75 we can get you going on that plan again today!"
"But you just said that you were the ones that took me off the plan. Why was I taken off the plan. I was sending my money in, and YOU SENT IT BACK."
"Well, I'm not sure, but for just $75 we can get you back on that plan!"
Those fuckers have done that more than once to us. When you go on a plan, you can send in a check, or have them EFT the payment, but you can't just pay them online. You have to go through a third party company, and use your card to pay the third party company. However, you can't use each third party company more than 2 or 3 times! So every few payments, you have to find a NEW third party company to pay through, and I don't even think there are enough of those companies to get you a years worth of payments! It is a system specifically designed to not only extract extra fees from you, but to have you fail completely.
