They won't though.

The henkster family doesn’t like watching game shows with me because I’m always the downer who says “Yeah, but after taxes it will only be X”.
Thread drift is the best thing here.
Still, when you have 30 million people who pay nothing in but receive (on average) $3,000 back...you've bought a huge block of votes! The flat tax cannot pass because the tax welfare recipients would never tolerate it. There would be rioting in the streets!
"You mean...because I paid nothing in, I get nothing back? That's unfair!"
Actually I read before posting and corrected an autofill.
Tax slavery. Too bad the takers don’t have to spend 25% of their “workday” time on behalf of the gov’ts. It’s not so much the money, it’s the theft of time that matters.
I asked the Admin moderator to correct it, but he must be still sleeping
And millions upon millions who are simply paid by the government to exist
Agreed. But their point is “pointless” because they could care less about his taxes. They have proven that they will never be happy.
Look close.
I did. I corrected the original autofill error. I am on a phone and didn’t think t he extra p you are making such a big deal made the post not understandable.
Exactly
Well the extra p doesn’t bother me, everyone makes mistakes. What bothers me is that the admin moderator ignores my request to correct the typo in the first name of the author, even though I asked him nicely.
“The title is correct, I did make a typo though, in the first name of the author.”
The title was showing something like ‘Time to take the handcuffs off with the protestors’.
Good article. I’ve heard that concept of having people actually pay their taxes out of their pocket and they would all be for smaller government. But with the refundable tax credits that doesn’t work. When my kids just started out in life and they would get big tax refunds, they just didn’t understand why I was always complaining about taxes all their lives. Funny thing when they started making enough that they had to pay more taxes and the refunds stopped, they would tell me that now they understood.
Tax reform would happen almost immediately with two changes in our tax code: First, make tax day November 1st...immediately before an election. Second, eliminate withholding so that taxpayers would have to write a huge check to pay their taxes. If taxpayers saw what they are paying right before an election, most of Congress would voted out of office and tax reform would quickly follow.
When my son started his business I explained to him that he had to pay all his own payroll taxes, insurance, etc. And to set the price of his services accordingly. When he saw his tax bill, he thanked me for that advice.
Or the employees that claim episode to 99 dependents on their W4. I would warn them that they could get into trouble, and most of them did. A year or two later, I would get garnishment orders and instructions to deduct their taxes at single and one.
Election day should be April 16.
