IRS Flooded With Calls About Stimulus Checks.
The government began sending payments April 28. So far, about 85.2 million payments totaling $70.78 billion have been distributed. IRS officials estimate 124 million payments totaling $100 billion will be made this year. Those eligible are getting as much as $600 apiece -- or $1,200 for married couples filing jointly -- plus $300 for each eligible child under 17.
In recent weeks, tens of millions of Americans have been flooding the Internal Revenue Service with questions about the government's economic-stimulus payments. Some callers want to know why their payment hasn't arrived and when it will. Others want to know why they didn't get as much as they had expected.
"To each according to their expectations."
Ah, the marxist-pavlovian conditioning continues...
Wake up, sheeple!
