Apparently you did not read the text of the article. Are you suggesting that this simple house in South Carolina that received nearly 24,000 ITIN illegal aliens refunds was a tax accountant's office, and likewise those other 154 houses who received over 1000 tax refunds from ITIN illegal aliens? I suggest you read the full text of that article. Apparently, the US Treasury Inspector General thought differently. Please don't waste my time.
What article..? buffalo didn't even link to it. He just mentioned the fake news site it came from, which is all I needed to see what kind of source it is and let me tell you, extreme bias is very easy to recognize. The other thing is that these fake news items are designed to go viral, so it's easy to find numerous articles that propagate the lie and and the fact checkers that pick them apart, just by typing "2.1 million illegal votes" into Google.
for instance...this fact checker...

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2017/feb/15/nearly-2-million-non-citizen-hispanics-illegally-r/Seriously, you don't even need the fact checker... It's easy to see how these false premises work just by reading what the liars have to say. The Washington Times article I linked to supports your claim, but when you read it you realize what they are basing it on... They don't actually say 2.1 illegal votes were cast. Here's how the Washington Times present the issue...
"A large number of non-citizen Hispanics, as many as 2 million, were illegally registered to vote in the U.S., according to a nationwide poll." So, not according to ANY official arm of the government, but according to a poll conducted by two professors at Old Dominion University back in 2014.
If you're like me, you can search even further, looking for any official reports and sure enough there are some... In fact one of them is mentioned in the factcheck article I linked to... where it says...
For example, in 2012 South Carolina’s attorney general notified the U.S. Department of Justice of potential voter fraud after finding 953 ballots cast in the 2010 election by voters listed as deceased, in some cases as long as six years. The finding ran in the Augusta Chronicle at the time in an Associated Press story under a headline, “South Carolina attorney general informs Justice Department of voter fraud.”
But a subsequent review by the State Election Commission found no evidence of fraud and that mostly the cases were clerical errors. Anything like this... the slightest chance that their could be some evidence, instantly becomes a screaming headline and all the morons who are just waiting for it eat it all up because they so badly want it to be true.
And since buffalo didn't link to his specific source, I don't know about the
"simple" house in South Carolina that received nearly 24,000 ITIN illegal aliens refunds. Google comes back with nothing. But I'm betting it's not a "simple" house and yes, if that "simple" house is actually receiving address for a company like H&R Block then yes, 24,000 ITINs could easily have been sent there.
So... until any of you maggots feeding off the feces of misinformation come up with anything substantial, stop wasting MY time.
