[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just did our taxes. Only W-2 income.

Overall we are paying less total tax than last year on slightly higher income (thank you tax cuts!). But we owe over $5k when we usually have a smallish refund.

I know we should its mathematically stupid to complain since we paid less overall but I am super annoyed as this will throw my budgeting into a tailspin.

We both have zero witholdings on our W-4 so this to me seems like some incompetence on part of the government that is blowing my budget up. Other people experience this?[/quote]

Stupid people like you should volunteer to pay MORE taxes.

Sheesh.[/quote]

She isn’t stupid. The changes to the withholding tables was a scam to get more people to vote for the GOP in the midterms. [/quote]

People need to do a check mid year to see if they are on track to hit the right amount of withholding. The IRS site has a simple calculator to help with this. It's not hard people. [/quote]

This is the dumbest sh#t ever. There should be zero reason for a family or person to do a “withholding check” if [b]their tax situation has not changed in years[/b]. Most folks have their kids and mortgage figured out. No one should need to be checking withholding, if their dependent or housing situation has not changed.

Please stop blaming patriot American taxpaying families. Instead, blaming the scumbag Republican politicos who focused this garbage on American families.[/quote]

This is the flaw in your argument - tax situations did in fact change. It's called being responsible for yourself. Why is this so hard? [/quote]

Stay golden. Can you get a job writing GOP ads for 2020? You’ve really got a feel for the Republican philosophy. [/quote]
