"Working Married Couples If you and your spouse both had jobs in 2009, each of you was eligible for a $400 credit -– a total of $800 if you filed together (this assumes you made more than $13,000 between the two of you). Well, someone didn’t double-check the math and you and your spouse actually received $600 each for a total of $1,200 in tax credit. Now you and your spouse owe the government $400 because of the glitch. Not that it’s any consolation, but you’re not alone -– 55% of married couples fall into this category."

Way to go U.S. Goverment!!! Let me make sure I understand this.... If we the people make a mistake on our taxes we pay a penalty, if the goverment makes a mistake "glitch" on our "tax credit", we the people still have to pay a penalty? Why don't they down size to cover the cost of their screw up.
