[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just did ours. W-2 income only, same deductions as last year and income went up only very slightly. We are solidly middle-class with a combined taxable income well under $200k. Two kids and only mortgage to deduct. We paid more taxes in 2018 and got a much smaller refund. We saw no increase in our take-home pay when the tax cuts were implemented.  The "tax cuts" were bullshit. [/quote]

This is us. We paid $8k more this year and our effective tax rate increased.[/quote]

$200k is wealthy, top 4% nationwide.

If you are not ready to pay $8k more (and that's because of DC tax BS), you are going to love it when you have to pay $30-40k more to fund all those lovely "progressive" ideas like free college and free healthcare and free Green jobs whatever that is :-)[/quote]

Here's an idea - before hitting the $200k taxpayers, let's first claw back the benefits that the uber wealthy got.  That'll pay for quite a few of those lovely progressive ideas.  [/quote]
