Yeah right, I'm the uppity snobbish truck driver. Tell my wife she does'nt deserve her 100k income and you better have a nut cup on. She was a waitress for 8 years while going through college to get her masters degree and graduated 50k in debt and landed a job for 1800 a month working for the school system in montana. She now works for a county hospital and has her choice of 30 jobs at any given moment 16 years later. My co-worker was on welfare 5 years ago with 3 kids. State put him through truck driving school. 5 years later he's making 65-70k has another 3 kids and still does'nt pay fed or state tax. Sounds like welfare to me, and i doubt he paid back the schooling or the welfare he received. Anyway the point i was trying to make was the senario fair??? People attack us i think cause of the large income. Look at this senario SENARIO-2 my co-worker gross pay 65-70k(stay at home wife, 6 kids) paid fed $0 paid state $0 total paid $0 (he told me he literally got back every thing he paid in 13k) (JUST FOR YOU JOSBORN 23.75x2800hrs=66500 plus bonuses,,, too many bong hits have made your eyes bug out and have short term memory loss) john the grocery clerk(single, 9.61 hour full time, no deducts) gross 20k paid fed $2095 paid state 996 total $3091 my 68 year old mom(widow, 1600 month social security, no deducts) gross 19200 paid fed 1975 paid state 948 total 2923 Soooo,,,, is this FAIR???? My complaint is the shifting of the tax burden to the single, elderly, and higher income people. SOLUTIONS,, every one pays at least 3k in fed taxes no matter how many kids you have. flat tax rate, 8% after deductions for EVERYONE I like this one, do away with the IRS AND SAVE BILLIONS and all federal taxes are collected through every product purchase or service purchase you make and guess what?? Illegal aliens end up paying taxes. Don't take this personnelly, if you can't pay your tax burden first, pay for your rights to be an AMERICAN, maybe people would think twice about having that 3rd, 4th, 5th, or 6th child. I did'nt post this looking for tax advice, my CPA is very good, almost 60k in write offs, and the 153k was after an 8k business loss. Just my opinion the system sucks and am not looking down my nose at anyone, one day you may be in my position and have another point of view!!! PEACE OUT 8) 8) FUELMAN I got a refund of 3800 + this year, plus I'm looking forward to my 2100 rebate from uncle sam in May.  Just take it like this. You did well last year, and hope you do well again this year, and maybe make some more money....let's say around 50K more to get you over 200K.... That way, you co-worker can still brag that he pays nothing at the end of the year, and you can be pissed off about paying around 35K. :lol: :lol: Seriously......I didn't mean to tell you about your finances....I don't know nothing about you. But it is kinda petty to come here and complain about it when some of us don't do that well. And the tax system always has people who think they can improve on it. It's usually those who are doing well off trying to stick it to the little guy. One last thing. Neither of those two men are married or have kids, or they wouldn't have paid a cent. Try comparing tax returns of people in the same category. Like two people making the same amount, married, each with two kids, and you will see they pay about the same. Back to my bong.
