Undocumented workers got billions from IRS in tax credits.

The Internal Revenue Service allowed undocumented workers to collect $4.2 billion in refundable tax credits last year, a new audit says, almost quadruple the sum five years ago.

I know how we can save $4.2 billion dollars. Stop giving illegals tax refunds !!!!!!!

Our government is so wise and efficient....NOT.

:thumbsup:

I'm fine with not providing tax credits to undocumented workers.

Until our elected officials get serious about simplifying our tax code, these issues will not go away. I know it's a hard sell to the voters....it's not as sexy sounding as "i'm going to create jobs" or "I'm going to cut spending".....but it would probably do more for the economic health of our country than any other single legislation.
