just ignored a hero member. nice. Jim, I hope that dick is full of as much bull as he's spouting...

Ouch. I'm very much against the Ignore button. Where's the fun? (grin)
It doesn't matter to me if he's just spouting or is actually having me investigated. We get investigated by so many agencies every year that one of my main "jobs" is keeping all our paperwork and computers organized for easy accessibility and understanding. Most agencies default action to not understanding your data is denial of services, negative action, Not Good Stuff. Then you have to appeal and it just increases the paperwork and hoop-jumping. I've long ago gotten use to making the process as painless for us as possible with the most amount of transparency to them. So if the hero member wants to spend his money having us investigated, fine. Just another Monday here. (grin)

He is against tax fraud but he probably doesn't mind the government spending money on endless bureaucracy and having civil workers who get payed $100,000+ annually (with a 5% pay raise every year or they will strike) to investigate and hound a man who has the misfortune to have a sick wife and wants to save a tiny amount of money.

In the end it would be much cheaper for the tax payers if they just ditched all those regulations and just paid you your money.

In my country we have many people who hate paying high taxes but call for more rules and regulations against things whenever they encounter something they don't like ("It should be banned!" "The government must take action!", etc.). They don't understand that they will have to pay for it.
