Could it be that "refunds" are down because the Government didn't rob as much from you through out the year? I've not received a "refund" from the Federal government since I was in my 20s. Why the fuck should I give them an interest free loan for the year?allpurpleallgold said: -
It could be. Good luck with that argument vs the billions rich people made off the tax cuts.
-
When you make more than last year the government takes more.

Yeah, good luck with the facts, you've got your entitlement mentality that makes you think you're owed what others have earned.allpurpleallgold said:It could be. Good luck with that argument vs the billions rich people made off the tax cuts.

Here's the point lost on Troomps. As you don't want to hear anything negative ever about anything Trump did. This is something Trump supporters are blaming on him, regardless of the actual reasons why it happened.
But reality is, this will be forgotten when Trump starts screaming about the wall again. They will get reenergized. -
Every single case where somebody has bitched about their refund being less, I've noticed that their total taxes paid were less in 2018 than 2017. In other words, they were simply taking home more in each paychecks due to less withholding.
It's really stupid and pointless to compare refund amounts instead of total taxes paid. -

I know deductions from my check went down after the tax cut took effect. I'm just guessing that might reduce the refund amount.

The Tax plan was a joke. EVERYBODY I know is getting significantly less back or are owing when they received refunds last year. I called it from the beginning. If you are a homeowner who lives in a state income tax state, you were gonna take it in the ass. And save the BUT BUT... they withheld less!!! They did, but not near enough to off set the tax amounts collected overall.

Americans who produce pay taxes. You're a sad economic contributor if you're waiting for your tax free loan return from the FEDs.
It's certainly not how APAGs two dads could afford to raise him in the most privileged island in Washington.
They paid capital gains, they didnt wait for returns on income taxes because they knew they owed.

No good reason why federal taxpayers should have to subsidize states' income taxes.

You want an intelligent response don't post about your stupid friends who don't understand how refunds work
That's not how we make policy -

Fuck off

Of course I think they should. After all, my opinion is that they shouldn't have to subsidize state income taxes, therefore logically speaking I must think they should have to subsidize billionaires and corporations.2001400ex said:

Liking Tax Refunds was stupid as fuck financial planning when Clinton was POTUS too -
Now that Democrats can't lie about people not getting a tax cut they are desperately flinging shit about refunds
Pathetic -
It's not Democrats flinging shit. It's tweets from Trump voters. Are you that ignorant?RaceBannon said:Now that Democrats can't lie about people not getting a tax cut they are desperately flinging shit about refunds

And yes some people didn't get a tax cut. -
