IRS reveals thousands of SSNs
The IRS accidentally revealed tens of thousands of Social Security numbers on an easy-to-find public database. It's a safe bet that hackers saw these numbers and want to use them for evil.

The IRS is designed to be a failure. They "misplaced" 3.9 Billion in tax revenue in 2009, as discovered by the GAO. Absolutely NO accounting for that money has been presented to date. And the GAO has no more authority to audit the IRS. Its a wonderful country these days, isn't it?

That's why many of our millionaires choose to put their fortunes in Switzerland or some islands :)

Our various government agencies used to be better at covering up their ineptness. It baffles me that the constituency so casually accepts their lack of ability at doing their jobs. I've never worked for anyone in the private sector who would ever tolerate such ignorance. :roll:

That's all because our boys in Washington couldn't care less about the condition of the country, so long as they are getting all the lobbiest dollars they feel they are entitled to.

Since this Administration has decided to be more transparent, we are seeing more mistakes.

Its a shame that we have politicians who do not read documents, but sign them without reading those 2,000 to 10,000 pages and continue to rob the tax payers of their hard earned money. Now we are going to see an increase of IRS tax audit dim witts that probably cannot fill out their own tax form let alone know how to use a solar powered calculator. It just amazes me that our government thrives on stupidity. Thats OK. One day they will become part of the Soilent Green crowd. One thing I have noticed is that our government wants everyone to become "Followers" and not "Doers". This creates a dangerous society for America and one that requires no one to think anymore. Just show up and collect a paycheck. A society without responsibilty will soon become a failure.

The wisdom of the last part of your sentence is obscured by the naivete displayed in the first part of your sentence. Sorry, Bangee5.

Great you have come up with another reason to pull the covers over your head and stay in bed.

Is it true that we borrow billions from China so we can give it away to other foreign countries as aid?? Is there an education system in this country that could better use that money?

Our government is doing everything in their power to bankrupt this country and push the vast majority of the population into poverty. No other explanation will cover the incompetence and idiocy that takes place every day in Washington.
