jimmytavino 16 #8 January 27, 2009 400 dollars???hell... that's Not much at all... i've been paying Taxes, since i'm 16 years old...withholding taxes, ( paid by my employer(s) ) sales taxes Insurance bills,,, which are Nothing BUt additional "you better be careful" Tax.and then of course property taxes.... which are the only thing in this economy which is going UP...social security tax... so that anyone who has a TV and sees the Lawyer commercials about how to qualify for "disability" , can make MY money, Their money...and since being both the employer and the employee for over 25 years.. i get to also pay DUPLICATE social security tax...reminds me of the "Popeye" movie with Robin Williams, where the tax man is trying to collect a "docking tax" a 'visitors tax' a 'walking around tax" and of course a " TAX Tax....." Man.. I'd take 400 bucks for my tax bill ANY day... ( better start writing off your skydiving expenses)jmy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You do realize that any "tax refund" is simply the government returning money that you overpaid, right??Most people give the government an interest free loan for up to a year by overpaying their taxes.And off to SC we go"There are NO situations which do not call for a French Maid outfit."
