From what he says he knows, I am convinced that at the very least he could have easily paid the tax. Also: 1 - The IRS accounts are with the IRS and 2 - Social Security Accounts are with the Social Security Administration rather than with the U.S. Department of the Treasury. Yes much processing goes on in the Department of the Treasury but the account homes are important for the processing to be done properly.
Re: Winston Shrout's Trillion Dollar 'Fictitious Obligations'

The arrest of the Morton couple seems too much of a coincidence to actually be a coincidence. I'm reminded of someone I know who doesn't believe in coincidences.
Re: 2011.
All of the bills mentioned in the indictment are from 2011 and after. Dodd-Frank connection?
