Subject: IRS Tax Code Comment: The following is another situation arising from that 50,000 pages of IRS Tax Code, that the FairTax would eliminate. I applied for, and was chosen after testing, for job training through a temp agency. I passed the training and was put on live work. I was an outstanding employee, and even received an award for excellence in customer service, although I was supposed to be in sales. But I was never hired. Why? Because I am not a drug addict, or alcoholic or welfare Mom. It seems the company only hired people if the company could get a tax credit for the new employee. When I asked an employment lawyer about this, I was told that what the company was doing is legal. After working for nothing, I gave up. Five months later I became ill, dehydrated and wound up unconscious in intensive care, with no medical insurance. After that, it was bankruptcy. |
