Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc (LEHMQ.PK) has sued the U.S. government, asking for the return of some $110 million that the bankrupt investment firm said it overpaid in taxes and penalties in 1999 and 2000.

This is like the arsonist who burns down your house and then sues you because he tripped on an uneven sidewalk out front whilst making his getaway.

I read this twice just to make sure I wasn’t hallucinating. 

Hopefully, they’ll divert federal taxpayer funds away from feeding hungry school children to right this egregious wrong.
