Just wait until the average man does his taxes this year.

Married, filing jointly, taking no payroll deductions, low - middle class. Paying $2000.00

I think this bite of reality is going to convince more people than all the political ads combined.

1. I came out ahead this year

but I hope for Kerry's sake that you're right.

2. taxes, don't get me started - I really hope there is a big backlash

I make under $20,000 a year and have to pay $700 in addition to what was already withheld

3. lower middle class......

$29k, single income, stay-at-home wife, four kids, paid zero in fed/state taxes, still got about $1600 from federal. Can't beat that. Owed a little on state......

4. well I guess I paid your taxes

us single people with no children get screwed to the max.

5. I know..single with not dependenta and not house to write off..

I have to pay $1500 - Boy, that tax cut sure is workin' for me.

[Skittles]

6. it sucks, doesn't it?

please tell me why we pay more taxes than people with children.

7. No shit! That's what I'd like to know.

Pandering politicians, perhaps? And to add injury to insult, I end up having to pay out more than they withheld--AND I don't even make enough money to pay my bills. :wtf:
