ROFL and what system do you propose to pay for police, fire, roads etc.

Volunteers, just like the Americans who sign up to join our Armed Forces.

that's about what I owe.

They get paid though, so bad example. Try again. So people that build roads are supposed to do that for free? Whos gonna pay for the material? Equipment? Not the people building the roads because they don't get paid, so they cant afford it.

People want to try to forget that the men that dumped that tea in Boston were not doing it because they hated paying taxes. They did it because they hated paying taxes to GB because GB wasn't using that money to improve the colonies and the colonies were expected to do what the king wanted them to do without being able to voice their concerns or have a part in deciding what was best for the colonies.

Taxes suck and they could figure out a better way to tax people, but they are necessary.

who's going to pay for illegal's healthcare and living expenses? them?

You really don't understand how any of this works, do you?

I thought I had figured out my estimated payments so that I would have near zero refund/tax-due.

I had figured and planned to do a (tax incurring) financial move.

But due to my old-timers, I made two such moves, one in March and one in November.

Now I owe about a grand between US and KS.

Oh well. One of these years I will get it exactly right!

I wonder what would happen if you could direct your taxes.

Say, Person A directs his taxes to go towards military items, bombs, planes, subs, maybe even a supersonic toilet seat.
Person B directs his taxes to infrastructure, roads bridges, sewer systems
Person C directs his taxes to Medicare, healthcare, education, etc.

I wonder what our budget would end up looking like.

Good call. What have you said to get them to give you a break on penalties?

And they receive socialized healthcare. :shockedface:

I guess that guy is just volunteering for his employer. Let's make sure they know he is willing to work for free for them.

I obviously understand more than you do.

I have a relative who tried that.

It didn't work at all.

I am working on my taxes right now.

I love that ****ing child tax credit. I see why people just keep having kids.

That Stinks bud... maybe don’t be reeruned and have 5K in your savings account that is quickly and easily accessible.
