New Law Allows Injured Vets To Get Refund On Taxes They Were Never Meant To Pay

This is a great thing that's going to happen because of Obama. He's really trying to leave a good legacy, and this will help him. It's also going to help many injured Vets financially. I'm not sure how a mistake of this magnitude could happen, but we are dealing with the IRS, so I guess that plains it.

Taxes have been mistakenly withheld as far back as the First Gulf War.
Thousands of veterans injured in combat could soon be able to recoup taxes erroneously collected from their disability severance pay due to a new law signed by President Barack Obama.

About 13,800 veterans separated from the military due to their injuries might have been affected, the nonprofit group National Veterans Legal Service Program estimates. Due to an accounting error, as much as $78 million in taxes deducted over decades from the lump sum payments.
