"What are some loopholes every American citizen should take advantage of?"

Via Reddit - Top 5 loopholes every American citizen should take advantage of...

For every family or single person making $30k or less per year, the IRS will file your taxes for you for free. If you go to a local branch during their specified hours, they will have their own agent look through your stuff and find basically everything you're qualified to receive. This is great for college students and anyone else who may need to catch up or has never done their taxes before. When I was able to do this, the IRS people were super friendly and worked tediously to get me everything they could think of. I also didn't see many other people there, so I guess they were glad to be doing something.

Sprint gives you a discount on your monthly phone bill if you say you're a friend/relative of an employee. All you do is enter the CEO's email address online when you sign up, since it's listed on their website.

Also New York City folk: You unfortunately need to poop in Times Square? No problem. Walk into the Mariott Marquis, and head to the fifth floor. Don't look around, don't stop, dont take the elevators (theyre not like every other elevator). Just head for the escalators and walk it. You'll find clean, quiet, and large bathrooms just ready to be defiled by your disgusting filth.
Edit: you can actually get away with quite a bit in NYC hotels as long as you look like you're supposed to be there. If everyone around you is in a suit and you're wearing a "keep calm and whatever" shirt, you'll stick out.

If you feel like checking out the views at Las Vegas' Stratosphere, go to the bar at the top. You can pay $35 or $40 for two people to ride the elevator to the observation deck--or you can ride to the bar for free and spend that on overpriced booze instead!

Extra cheese is free on cheeseburgers at Five Guys.

Do you know of any loopholes you might want to share with us?

Of course, some of these might be... I don't know... reprehensible?

Should you do something just because you can?

Renounce your citizenship, and get adopted by illegal aliens. In California, if you are an American citizen but from another state, you pay full tuition at CA state universities. As the child of illegal aliens you will get the heavily discounted rate and save a fortune. Besides, Mexican food is great. Viva la raza!

Quit your job, get welfare, food stamps, section 8 housing and a plethora of others stuff for free. You will probably raise your lifestyle while never having to take shit from a boss or get out of bed before 10am ever again. The down side is that you have to vote for Democrats to keep your new lifestyle, so wise people will lose respect for you, but they're all racists anyway, so fuck them anyway.

Sorry, off topic:

Is there a government anywhere that is more stupid than ours?

If you have tax troubles, call the IRS Problem Resolution Office.

They really will help you work it out. They'd rather have some money than none.

In CO - a tuition discount for illegals is also I the offering.

It pays to be illegal!
