Just finished my ITR for last year. A family who has no preferences, normal income stream from work and an annuity. Taxes down 4K over last year on a bit more income. We live within our means, have no debt, don't have a palace or a palace priced home, yacht and or Gulf stream jet. We chose what we wish to support, like our dependent family and our Church rather than have the government steal money from us to support some flotsam that has washed up onto our shores.

So, let the dems tell me again why I should vote for them?

Last couple of days, the media were reporting that people were disappointed that refunds were lower than expected because of the tax cuts. Of course, they didn’t bother with telling people that the ‘refund’ is just the government sending back an interest-free loan you gave them or that less was withheld in the first place because the tax rates were lowered.

Nope, it’s Bad Orange Man has cut my refund!

Huge numbers of people pay NO Federal taxes.
That one goes into the pile of Reagan’s biggest mistakes.
There is no downside to them supporting higher taxes
that they won’t be paying.

Add that to the news that Jeff Bezos apparently paid ZERO income tax last year, and yes, I can believe that Soak the Rich is coming back into vogue.
