<< I heard a story last week on the radio that the IRS audits earned income 
at a 
much higher rate than unearned income.  Us working slobs make easier targets. 
That's much more upsetting to me than the slavery thing. >>

This is because Congress told them to. Some Congresspeople were afraid of 
fraud in the Earned Income Credit program and instructed the IRS to increase 
its supervision of that program.

I'm not defending the IRS here, particularly, just trying to place the blame 
where it really belongs.
