My Taxes Went Down!

Charitable deductions didn't go away.

 

But you should pay more. You obviously won life's lottery and are likely privledged whitey. The fact your wife works hard to maintain her skills is irrelevant as the high school drop off is entitled to some of her earnings

 

Congratulations! Not having to pay interest is big advantage, completely overshadows any tax advantage. Doing things to swing a tax deduction is pure stupidity.

 

This. It amazes e how many people think it is better to have the mortgage deduction than pay a bit more tax and not pay all of that interest...

 

So you don't deduct business expenses, same thing isn't it? Are you required to spend X number of hours and pay for continuing education every year to be able to run a race?

 

That would be about 70% of my taxes.

 

Tax breaks for children makes sense because that's where you get future taxpayers.
If we're going to 100% support the children of people who pay no taxes at all, I think we can make some allowance for the expense of raising children who will probably grow up to be responsible taxpayers themselves.
The EIC is debatable, but if you're working I think that should be encouraged.
I'd rather see more breaks for working families.

 

Working families, so anyone with a job? Or are you thinking lower income people many of whom already pay no taxes. Yep let’s get above 50% who don’t pay so the majority thinks gov is a sugar daddy without putting out.

 

I'm with most of you guys... do away with al deductions.

I've run my own business ans have 4 kids.

Just give me a solid percentage based off my income or profit if a business that I must pay.

 

I don't think anyone should get more than they paid in. If they have deductions or whatever, fine, but giving people back more than they actually paid in seems like some communist or socialist scheme.

 

My "crumbs" as Pelosi would say is $632.04 per year. Thank you Mr. President. I suppose what Nancy means is that it isn't enough.

 

Hold your breath waiting for dem to suggest tax cuts.

 

Yeah it's a bit ironic that my "crumbs" per household are around 2,500 annual and we were told this was going to be "Armageddon" with a "15,000 annual bodycount."

A few years ago, I was told that I would save 2,500/year and it was going to be great because of commie medicine. Silly, stupid, lying Democrats.

 

Ho
Lee
Shit
!

 

What happened? Did the bodycount start? How many dead?
