The IRS, for years, has known of any time a direct deposit of $1000 is made to y(our) bank account(s). It is checked to see if you paid your taxes on it. And since it's a paycheck, it's linked to your tax id number. The IRS, per-pay-check, already know what you are getting, even it's $442. You pay taxes on that shit son!

Like I said, all this does is make poorer people targeted as well. If it bothers you, which it bothers me, become an active activist and educate people in the public sphere about your concerns. Just make sure you don't embellish or use opinion.
