On the recordAugust 3, 1995
Thousands of Americans receive faulty notices from the IRS. The IRS says, ``Your taxes are delinquent, pay them up.'' When the IRS was asked if the 1993 tax law allowed deferrals, they said, ``The law is being reviewed.'' When IRS was asked how many taxpayers got notices they said, ``A small number.'' Now documents reveal that 43,000 Americans got faulty notices in the first month. The IRS said, ``Small problem. These things happen.'' Shame, Congress. Shame, for allowing the IRS to rip off and trample the rights of the American taxpayers. By the way, the old saying, ``Easy for you, difficult for me,'' does not apply to the IRS.
