Just got my slip in the mail from the IRS saying I'll be getting $300 back from taxes I had paid.

[:D]

I'm so glad I took the time to stroll on over and vote for Bush.

I think I'll buy some ammo... or.. Hmmm... New Sony 19 inch monitor..

Gore... heh.. I would have paid more taxes, had his bitch whore wife censor my music while Gores vice ass buddy would censor video games and then all of them would form a daisy chain and passed more bullshit gun laws.

At least this delays it for 4 years..

Oh come on guys! You can't be that stupid? This tax cut is a joke. That check is a token gift to fool Americans. The Democrats and Republicans will find yet another way to take that money back and more so. Wait until after the 2002 election to see whether or not more money will come like it should.

I voted for Buchannan, but only because I got confused on the ballot and thought I was voting for Bush.

It is the amount of money over and above the current tax code that was witheld between January 1st and the passing of the new code. As in if your tax rate dropped 3%, you would receive a return of 3% of your salary for the period from January to about June. In addition, you will pay 3% less from now on. That amounts to a raise.

I saw a lady on TV bitching about this tax refund.

Apparently she was not eligible to recieve a refund because she paid no federal income tax last year.

She was very irate and saying how Bush lied, and the refund was a sham, and she thought the refund was for all Americans, and she didn't understand why she wasn't getting her piece of the pie, blah, blah, blah.

Are people getting dumber by the minute or is it just me??

themao is right. In 2 years we will see if Bush can keep his promise to cut taxes.

What cracks my ass up is this...

How much of our tax paying dollars went to pay for this massive mailing just to tell us how much money we're getting and when.  

I also have one thing to say to all the liberals out there that wanted to let the feds spend OUR money on more worthless gov't programs...  YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO CASH YOUR FUCKING CHECK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I however, am going to add my 300 bucks to the GT Zaskar Race fund.  I need a new mountain bike by the end of the summer [:D]

If you mean this, then all you have to do is point your mouse to the top of the message you want to quote and click on the icon that looks like a page with a purple arrow curving around it.  If you pause your pointer over it before clicking a little hint will pop up that says "Reply w/ Quote".  It took me a while to figure it our too.

This isn't a dumb question. But here's an answer,when you go to "New Reply", Click on Board Code in the lower left of the screen(Red Highlite) this will give you instructions on how to do bold type,colors etc. Click on "Icon Legend" and "Anim Legend" for the smiley icons.

I was like Door Kicker:

ME:  "Because of the tax cuts we'll get a rebate of $600!"

WIFE:  "Great, that means we can finish landscaping the backyard!"

(long pause as I go around the corner)

ME:  "DOH!"


$300-600 perfamily may not sound like much but it adds up to $38 BILLION injected back into the economy.  And the best part?  WE get to decide where that money is spent, NOT THE GOVERNMENT.

If your single, you get $300 or %5 of your income back, whichever is less. I get a whopping $60 back. How come I didn't hear about this in the news. Oh well, better than nothing. I think I'll get one of those 200 rnd Sellior & Belliot 12 gauge 2 3/4 "00" buck shotshell cases.[:D]

Not to rain on anyones parade but I got my slip saying I was to receive $600.
Then, I'm notified that I will [b]NOT[/b], but will more likely get a lower amount.
And my first paycheck under the latest Tax codes,
Was [b]LESS[/b] than it was prior. TAX CUT,HAHA.

OH-WELL I guess it's worth it since we don't have Woody Bore as Pres.
