Tax Fraud, Illegals and the IRS

The real kicker in this article is the last paragraph.  It took  $13 million in refunds before the IRS caught on. And these are the people who are going to come after US citizens if we don't have insurance.

5 more arrested as 15 plead guilty in $13 million tax scheme

By David Dykes

Federal law enforcement officials said Tuesday 15 people have pleaded guilty in an Upstate case that allegedly defrauded the Internal Revenue Service of $13 million.... 

....Prosecutors said between 2006 and November 2009 two tax preparation businesses, Seguros Internacional, operating in Spartanburg, and Forest City, N.C., and Poz Servicios Para Hispanos, operating in Boiling Springs, along with affiliated individuals, filed more than 10,000 federal income tax returns claiming more than $22 million in refunds.

According to Acting U.S. Attorney Kevin F. McDonald in Columbia and federal court records, Katy Rivera, Jose de Jesus Magana-Escoto, and Daniel Chavero-Ramirez, all of Mexico, and illegally in the United States, were the latest to plead guilty to their involvement in the four-year fraud against the IRS.

Approximately $13 million in refunds were paid by the IRS before criminal investigators discovered that most of the returns appeared to be fraudulent, prosecutors said.Investigators estimate at least 20 people were involved in operating the scheme in which tax preparers claimed tax credits or deductions to which filers weren't entitled. One tax credit that was improperly claimed on a majority of the returns was for child care expenses. That credit can result in a refund even if no taxes are paid, federal officials said.

Illegal Immigrant Health Care?

From The Stratasphere

Rep Joe Wilson Vindicated

By AJStrata on Joe Wilson

As reader Frogg1 notes, the Senate Democrats scrambled to fix the loop holes in their bill to ensure illegal aliens could not get government subsidized (or rationed) health care. The liberal media shills can post and write whatever they want about Smokin’ Joe – but the fact he forced the Senate to make their bill ban illegal aliens from the government trough means he has been vindicated.

Case closed.
