People eligible for EITC rarely are handling stacks of 1099 and business transactions.

We're talking about single mom with a couple part time jobs with a W-2 territory.

The idea their taxes should have mistakes more than average seems a bit far-fetched to me.

That said maybe it is cheaper and easier just to eliminate the EITC/taxes/filing for people earning under X. It seems like a waste to even bother with people making under 20 or 30 grand.
