But they, like the blood bank and institutions that compensate participants in research studies, aren't going to issue a 1099 unless you receive over $600 in a calendar year. Doesn't mean it's not reportable income, though. Just means that the "anything else" box in turbo tax should be checked.

Careful with that 1099 shit. I forgot about (read: spent all of) a bunch of that income this year.

I owe Uncle Sam. Even with a pile of phony deductions. Cocksucker.

Over the years and in different locales, I have seen the per donation fee advertised from $55 to $125 (haven't seen anything lately, so it may be somewhat higher). Generally, there is a limit of 3 (sometimes 2) donations per week--first they don't want too much supply from any one person, second, the count v. motility factor is best with a rest period of 48 (+/-) hours. Finally, it's 1099 income, so you have to pay self-employment tax.

Who designed that fucking sensless tax? You pay 15%, then get a decuction for half of it? WTF? The morons couldn't just give you one fucking percentage to pay from the outset?

A free Colt 45 for the first asshole to tell me why it makes sense and I ought to be glad they stucture it that way.

Has anyone ever written a novel about a sector of the country just deciding not to pay their taxes one year? I was thinking about that today. If 10-20% of society just up and said "nope, I ain't paying," the IRS couldn't prosecute actions against all of them. You could apply Gahndi's teaching to tax protests and really get your voice heard. These waterheads protesting in DC are going about it all wrong. If you really want to end the war, don't file. Millions of people who make serious money doing that at once would make a mess of things in an awful hurry.

I'm with you. Coincidentally I just got a new 9 and a new assault rifle this weekend......for when they kick in my front door.

Burn IRS, Burn!

Voting blank ballots is as close as I can come for you -- maybe you want to check on the Objectivists' site?

Deductions are worth more the higher the tax bracket you are in. So it's worthless to people whose income is below the minimum taxable income, is 10%(?) for people in the lowest tax bracket, and then rises to 35% for the people in the highest tax bracket.

So you should be way, way fond of it.

Gone With the Wind? I rememeber from history a bunch of state seceded and stopped paying taxes. the Government was able to prosecute all of them, and maintain a war.

Every year there are DC statehood protests that "symbolically" protest taxation without representation. I have often been tempted to suggest that we do this for real. Of course, the federal government would probably like nothing more than to throw a bunch of lefty DC tax protesters in jail.

I'll take that under advisement when I figure out which fucking tax bracket I'm in.

Why isn't this fucking kid worth more money? Why must they tease me with thse silly credits, only for Turbotax to then tell me "You don't get that because (insert some explanation here)."

I'm going back to the accountant... the sleazy one. I'm far beyond my Peter Principle here.

There should be an "opt out" clause for people to walk away from the govt. We'd get no benefits and pay minimal taxes for things like roads, police and the military. It'd be like ordering a coach seat instead of business or first class. We get nothing special and in return have no right to claim any of the Cadillac benefits like social security or medicare. Alternatively, we should have the option of giving the money we'd be assessed in taxes to charity. At least I'd feel good doing that.

I undertand taxes are factor in wages, and that I got what I got in part because the market realizes how Uncle Sam assfucks the upper middle class. But it's still terribly annoying. I wanted to buy a really, really big television.

I believe that in some ways we are our brothers' keepers. I just don't want to be the middleman's (Uncle Sam) keeper as well.

Put fraud alerts/watches on your credit card account, bank account, and driver's license.

Cancel all accounts and reopen new ones.

Check your credit report regularly and monitor for suspicious activity.

When you receive the new cards, follow Pony's advice.
