Fixed it with a single mouse click ... damn people, it ain't hard ... that extra one percent of my pay check is safe!

I'd figure most people would stumble upon that if they didn't read about it in the paper or see it on the local news. My withholding can be changed on-line with a single mouse click. At the beginning of the year I reduced my "contributions" by $500 a month with a couple mouse clicks between the state and the federal government ... one more didn't hurt too bad at all.

When I am President the second thing I do is remove all forms of automatic government program deductions from all pay checks. You want to really piss the people off have them start writing checks to Social Security, Federal and State taxes rather than automatically deduct it. I asked the guys at work if they could tell me any of their taxes to within the nearest $25 ... not a one ... yet when the price of gasoline goes up a dime they're giving birth to kittens.

Become a resident of Illinois and pay no state taxes while not serving in the state.

Not required - it already is state law and has been for years and years. So the bastards can't touch the taxes so they put "fees" on everything that walks, crawls, or slithers across the land. Technically this isn't a new tax, they're just merely over collecting on the old one. I see Howard Jarvis taking this one on if the new governor doesn't kill it with one of the first strokes of her pen next year this time ... along with a hundred other bull shit call-them-what-you-want but they're taxes.

And don't come back please!

Illegal - the politicians can NOT pass or increase taxes here. They have to find a way to trick fuck us with a nod and a wink from the courts.

Too bad they're so stupid that they voted in Obama.

Making more money than ever actually ...

Since I'm in the highest tax bracket here ... as are most people with jobs ... the +10% was less than one percent of my paychecks - about $100 a month before I stopped it with a mouse click. I already cut them by $500 a month eleven months ago so the extra $100 was easy.

The shocking thing is that if you don't pay the federal government your tax bill in advance of it's due date - they fine you for paying it ... they fine you for paying it late! I shit you not. Nobody posting here knows that or understands that but if you fail to pay your federal taxes in advance one year they'll fine you and then set up quarterly payments for the next year forcing you, forcing you to pay your tax bill in advance! Why nobody knows that is shocking - ask any of your tax preparers if you can write out a check for your bill in April. Nope. Not a big deal at all. California does the same but adds 10% more and it's the end of the world as we know it ...

Too farting funny people.

No, I'm not defending this but how do you pay your federal income taxes? You pay them in advance of their due correct? Or do you face the fines for not paying them early?  Does Ohio let you pick the amount of withholding? California does - you click with your mouse on a box from zero to nine on my form - and that adjusts the amount of withhold I choose to put away. They jumped it by 1% of my paychecks so I took off dependents to get it down about $100 to even it out. Since the withholding tables that my employer (DoD) uses are based on one paycheck - and I get two, plus my pension, plus my disability from the VA they're terribly off. I've been manually managing them for the last six years now and most highly recommend everyone - even non- phuckers - reduce them as much as possible.

Glad to here it!

And another convert! Sorry we couldn't take you anyways as California is full.
