Default Notice

After I posted this thread, I discovered that the original link had been taken down and disappeared off into cyber land. I always try to include reputable sources in my threads, but this time around I got caught by a little bait and switch action out there on the Internet. It happens. I have requested that the mods either close this thread or delete it.

Who can seriously trust the IRS after the Lerner incident?

The IRS is probably the most disgusting agency out there. If you have documented evidence that the IRS told you to do something wrong and you followed their advice, you're still liable for following their directions.

Releasing Wage and Bank Levies

Quote:
- The IRS telephone taxpayer assistance program provides about 8.5 million Americans the wrong answers to even the most basic inquiries about the tax laws.
- This year roughly 10 million Americans will receive correction notices from the IRS assessing about $4 billion. About half of those notices will be erroneous.
- About 40 percent of the revenues the IRS collects through penalty assessments are abated when citizens challenge the penalties. In 1993 taxpayers were over- charged $5 billion.
- A General Accounting Office audit of the IRS in 1993 found widespread evidence of financial malfeasance and gross negligence. The IRS could not account for 64 percent of its congressional appropriation.
