Wonder if she knew this was coming...

Yup, they use to day most of the H&R block people were ex IRS or possibly still working. It's really disgusting if you ever sit down and really calculate how much tax you really pay. Not just what they take from your paycheck but the tax on everything else.
My daughter had to do taxes for the 1st time this year. I made her sit down and create a turbo tax account and do it herself. She was surprised as little as she worked and using only the short form she still got back around $300
It's funny how mine keeps going down. I got back 1/2 of what I did last year and last year I got back 1/2 as much as the year before. Seems my kids are worth less, the last 3 years the tax credit has decreased for them.

Only thing that saves my butt is all my charitable contributions and honestly I dont count everything but i do keep receipts and most pictures of what I donate.

Its ****ing sickening how much money they take from us and we are in all of this debt.

What's sad is these sheep that believe the propaganda and have no idea how much we are really paying out in taxes and fees. They believe this 1% bs and all the loophole talk. I had to explain to my co worker a loophole are things such as being able to deduct charities, your mortgage interest and things like that. It's no different that AAS, people have been brainwashed if they hear the word steroid automatically they think negative. It's that way with many things.

I play devils advocate often just for that reason, because people are quick to judge even on this forum. Every time you have of some guy being ACCUSED of having sex or improper relations with someone underage (under 18) most people automatically say hang them, cut off his balls, he is a pedo..... Really? What ever happened to innocent until proven guilty? What if you are 19 and your GF is 17? Happens all the time. they break up and all of the sudden the GF gets upset and cries wolf. Also in 50% of divorce cases involving kids if things are not going right for the wife she/they typically at some part of the divorce claim either abuse or some type of improper contact with the kids and all of the sudden everyone is ready to hang the guy. Typically the guy/husband will give the ex what she wants to make things go away but it's just sad people are brainwashed by media and always believe the worse.

I regress, I still say it's just people being brainwashed into believing we/they are not paying enough and the government NEEDS that money to make things better. Yeah we need to spend millions to understand why there are more lesbians alcoholics than gay men. Spend millions on why there are so many alcoholic Chinese female prostitutes in China. Millions on eatable food containers for deep space travel. There are 10,000s of such projects but instead of cutting any of those they will shut down assistance to people who need it, police, fire, libraries, school and of course the white house Easter Egg hunt.

OK enough rant.
