Hard as it may be to believe, some people who shortchange the IRSon income taxes later get pangs of conscience. The government makesit easy to assuage that guilt. You can write a check-with no fear ofretribution-and send it to:
The Conscience Fund
U.S. Department of Treasury
Credit Accounting Branch
3700 East-West Highway, Rm. 6D37
Hyattsville, Md. 20782
And some people-maybe those who dumped their dot-com stocks beforethey tanked-just want to do something extra to help pay off thenational debt. If you're one of those, you can send any amount ofmoney to:
Bureau of the Public Debt
Attn. Dept. G
P.O. Box 2188
Parkersburg, W. Va. 26106-2188
In the memo field of the check, just write: "Gift to reduce thedebt held by the public."
