  1. i was told by an accountant that the reason the irs is targeting people is that there has indeed been a lot of cheating by american jews

    1) american jews will get citizenship for their kids and then back claim child credits

    2) the credit is for people who work, not those who learn in kollel. that hasn't stopped guys in kollel from claiming that their stipend is a salary (which it ain't in the eyes of the irs).

    3) the documentation that mr bluke had to submit is nothing compared to what a friend of mine had to do.
