A number of years ago (I think during Clinton's term), the IRS was auditing low income tax earners that were getting EIT refunds. Democrats got wind of it and raised holy hell. That audit program ceased because of the outcry. Since then I do not think the IRS wanted to touch that hot potato.

It might have led to the scariest of words, profiling.

There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

That was a rhetorical question right?  The EITC is the easiest way to get a large refund if you are going for fraud without it being obvious, imo.

Fact: I worked in a factory one summer where one employee threw a knife at another employee just missing them by inches ( employees used trimming knives as part of the job).  The cops and FD hauled the loon away in a restraining jacket.  At break I was talking to the best boy who said "yeah, she'll spend a few weeks at the ho ho Hilton then be back."  "Happened before?"  "Oh yeah, she goes off a few times a year."  I left before she returned.

ETA: R we havin fun yet?

Most places I worked, with the exception of the meat plant. If you pulled a knife at a guy and went after him, you were fired.... :lmao:   I know a guy that was fired just for screwing around having nail gun wars in a pallet shop at ALCOA. A guy took a nail in the groin.  :argh:
