Get that: $9 billion in waste. It should come as no surprise that the IRS actually made the problem worse. The agencys 1992 experiment that gave about $400 million in EITC benefits to those who had not applied but seemed entitled only created a monster: $175 million of erroneous payments. Part of it was poorly recorded paperwork. After all. 90 percent of the benefit checks. up to $2.500 each. go to those who pay no income taxes in the first placeincluding illegal aliens and prisoners. For wasting money through a nearsighted bureaucracy. the earned income tax credit get my Porker of the Week Award.
