Lady, I’m trying to go to bed.
But KD’s on a roll!
Btw, how ‘bout that GS thingy? That should be fun-a-licious!!!!
:) Thanks for keeping up with the rascals.
lol government sachs lots of fun sleep tight!
Just more of the arrogance of power. They agressively go after your money, but selfishly refuse to give back our money, or even pay interest.
and before I go, let me just say the overseas stock markets were taking a rather impressive DUMP an hour or so ago. LOL
Nothing like that ol’ Hope and Change!
Why does America submit to this?
You know why.
Wait until our markets see those new jobs reports 666 again?
Filed my state taxes April 10. I am not even shown in the online system yet!
Called and called, finally got a human on the line— and was told it could be 5 months before I get my $2100.00 refund.
I was a professional running a welfare health clinic in Ohio in the early 80s. They would hold payments to the office for 6 months or more. Occassionally I had to call my state rep and beg him to get the state to release some money.
It was hell on earth.
Then when I sold the practice and moved to another state, Ohio somehow “lost” $2,000. I paid to have my former staff file several times and each time the state “lost” the paperwork. Finally, they said that since it had been a year since treatment, that I would need to **personally** appear for each patient individually. Of course, I gave up. The big stick that these state workers had was doing an audit on all my previous work. That would have been a nightmare!
To put $2,000 in perspective, a new townhouse in my area would have sold for about $30,000. So....$2,000 in 1983 was a significant amount that was about 8% of what I then owed in school loans.
Yeah, I’ve basically given up asking why. I know why and the vast majority doesn’t seem to care anyway. Theoretical principled arguments get tiresome after awhile.
Ridiculous. Aren’t you owed interest?
One would think...and yes Illl hammer that.
People are going to pay more attention and set their with holding properly so the government doesn’t have their money in the first place. If they don’t collect it, they can’t refuse to give it back.
BTTT
(I’m looking at 5 months to get my return...here is what is online at Georgia department of Revenue)
From the Georgia Dept of Revenue website:
Refund Processing Schedule
In our continuing effort to provide up-to-date information to our customers, the latest refund processing schedules can be found below. The department has had to join other state agencies in reducing its budget resulting in a nearly $12 million dollar reduction or 10%. In order to attain the reduction the department terminated 18% or nearly 280 positions since October of 2008; 155 of these positions were in our processing center. We have hired 70 additional employees in the last two weeks in our processing center which should increase the number of returns we process each week. Thank you for your understanding and patience.
We are currently working paper returns received between: April 1st April 6th
Refund checks for these returns will be mailed between: July 7th July 14th
Paper returns received prior to April 10, 2009 will complete processing within 10-14 weeks.
Paper returns received after April 10, 2009 will complete processing within 14-20 weeks.
Move to Texas. We have no state income tax. ‘nuff said.
A good rule of thumb is to never send in with holdings, period. Run your own “S” corp and opt for a low salary on which your FICA payments are based. I’d much rather owe “them” than they owe me.
Things that are unreal can not long maintain the illusion of reality and the Income Tax has been one of the largest hoaxes in human history. We will never have a law that ends Income Tax it will just become irrelevant as there will be no (or very few) incomes to tax. What will our gummint masters do at that point? They will have few options and so we can look to the Third World to see what our future will look like. Prepare for corruption that will make "the Chicago Way" seem like a priesthood in comparison.
We have been talking about boiling frogs for years but this pot is really quit different. There is an intersection of two divergent lines here. At what point does an institution (our military?) step up and say "enough"? Or is there a point at which folks actually pick up pithforks and torches? I know many of us here at FreeRepublic beat our chests and proudly proclaim various thing (myself included) but will it happen? Will it be enough? Massive uncertainty there.
But if you are not self employed and they take it out of your check you can’t do that right? I wanted to have my husband change the with holdings but then I worry about getting the fine.
Slave mentality. The want-something-for- nothing crowd.
Most people would prefer living as governmental slaves than free people.
obama, the Democrat Party, and media love people such as this.
