Federal Workers Owe Billions in Unpaid Taxes

Seventy-one employees in the Executive Office of the President, which includes the White House, owe $664,527 in taxes for 2005. About 20 of those employees have entered into an IRS payment plan, bringing the EOP balance down to $455,881owed by 50 employees.

As the 2006 tax season approaches, the federal government is still trying to recover nearly $3 billion from its own employees who failed to file income tax returns for 2005.

More than 450,000 active and retired federal employees did not voluntarily comply with federal income tax requirements for the 2005 tax year, according to documents obtained by WTOP through the Freedom of Information Act. (See Excel spreadsheets in the Related Links below.)

These SOB's just don't give a damn....

2. Unbelievable! Is this a first for this current administration, or has

it been such a problem before historically? I can't belive their arrogance.

But everyone else - be careful how you deduct your cell phone bills.

You're paying for these a-holes you know.
