The Affordable Care Act’s website and
law does not work. Social security is not viable anymore. The President’s
stimulus plan did not work years ago. Sacramento, LA, Chicago, Oakland, and countless
other American cities are broke and/or financially destitute because of
mismanagement. Why does it seem hackers are so effective and productive but
American government agencies and itself are so inept and pathetic?
OK, let's continue with things we do know....
Filing fraudulent tax returns using
stolen identities is on the rise and 2016 has seen several such scams already.
Scammers usually pry on unsuspecting, gullible victims and are able to extract
information from them by making phone calls and pretending to be an IRS officer
or through phishing scams where victims literally fill in all of their personal
information and send it to the scammers on a golden cyber platter, as reported
by USA Today.
Tax lawyers and the Internal Revenue
System have already launched awareness campaigns to pay attention to the matter
and to warn law abiding American citizens to not give away their personal
information, especially their social security numbers and addresses.

Hackers
Broke into IRS Website by Answering Personal Identity Verification Questions
Tax scams are prevalent
throughout the country and are usually small scale scams where fraudsters
debunk one victim at a time. However, a group of hackers, in 2015, hacked into
the Internal Revenue System’s network itself and had gained access to over
700,000 tax payer accounts. This number is more than double of what was previously
estimated say tax attorneys.
According to cyber security experts, the
hackers were able to break into the Internal Revenue Systems website by using
tax payer information acquired through some other source to answer personal
identity verification questions, in the “get transcript” section of the IRS’
website. Among the information stolen, say IRS officials, was social security
numbers, birthdates, addresses, and other information which the fraudsters can
now use to impersonate the tax payer and acquire tax refunds.
Upon the advice of cyber security
personnel, the Internal Revenue System were quick to deactivate the “get
transcript” functionality of the website in order to prevent further cyber
security attacks.
IRS
to take Measures to Protect American Tax Payers
IRS Commissioner John Koskinen has
addressed the issue publicly and has stated that the Internal Revenue System
will mitigate the risk of frivolous tax return filings by reaching out to tax
payers whom they suspect may have been hacked (whose accounts show suspicious
activity) and sending them a free Equifax identity theft protection product
valid for one whole year. The IRS will also send out personal identification
numbers to these tax payers which they will need to use to access their
accounts in the future.
If America had a flat tax things would
be much easier for Americans. If America had a better government and superior
leadership, this would not happen as much and when someone is caught, the
punishment would be much more severe. Under President Obama now, America is
just weak.
Tax
& Spend Obama Expected to Draft and Propose a $10 Tax on Every Barrel of
Oil
$300 billion dollars a month is not
enough. $410 billion dollars is enough either apparently. This is how much the
US government takes in every month but it does matter since they will spend
more than they receive regardless.
President Obama, in order to finance a
transportation spending plan, is expected to propose a $10 dollar tax per
barrel of oil, according to a USA Today report. But Congress, including many
Democrats, have already said this will not pass.
Republicans were quick to find glaring
flaws in the proposal by pointing out that this new tax would, unlike the gas task,
be levied on the end consumer and not on the oil companies themselves. The
socialist President Obama just cannot stand it when Americans have a little
extra money and on top of this, Americans are already paying more for a health
care system that has been damaged by his ACA and the ACA is not wanted by most
Americans as well. America has never had such a petty and greedy President. Why
not find a way to lower health care costs? Why not find a way to simplify the
tax code? Why are there still troops in Europe Mr. President?
