Oh believe me. Incompetency is a two-way street.

Well, it is f'n golden, and shouldn't be given away for free...

probably has more to do with illegal immigrants who pay under a fake SSN, generally pay more in taxes than they actually owe, and would qualify for things like the EITC.

fixed for posterity

Senate seats are $150 - 200 million easy. Even big city mayors cost more than that. Bloomberg paid $150mil for his seat just now.

Just in case you're wondering what's happening to this country.

pretty simple. send our military down to grand cayman and you will find $1 trillion in assets hidden there by "good honest Americans"

our country lets the wealthy hide money. it's pretty simple to find out who they are. the gov't is making a " for show purposes only" attempt currently.

Those undelivered checks are worth more than $3.6 million.

Thanks for showing your work, AP.

Well spotted. The article is about the federal IRS, and cites a 'spokeswoman for the IRS in Illinois', not the Illinois Department of Revenue**.

**This clarification is in no way meant to diminish our love of the free market system of government, nor downplay the Illinois Department of Revenue's inability to find its own ass while locked in a small closet.
