Well on one side you have like all Americans who do not enjoy doing taxes and on the other you have an industry that bribes senators so that they can continue to exist. Gee I wonder why things are the way they are.

you guys are making fun of our tax system now, but wait until our empire collapses and capital flees to the next superpower. after a short decade of civil strife, we’ll have an even more modern and streamlined tax system in the new government. it will put your pathetic systems to shame, mark my words.

Wouldn't work, if the America system collapses then 1 USD = 0 other money, and so now all the rich over there are moneyless. That's how economy works.

If you are employed and not a contractor you do pay as you earn. But it gets super complicated from there. You pay based on how much you withhold and that is based on how many dependents you claim. You can claim yourself or claim no one. And claiming means nothing - you can claim 3 dependents then when it comes time to file say whoops and just owe the government a lot of money. There are as deductions. Are you married, do you own a house, did you pay mortgage interest, did you pay local taxes, did you pay for an education, daycare, did you donate anything from a shirt to a million bucks to a charity etc.................. and all of these can affect how much you pay in taxes. Also it's not just how much money you make but how much money you spend/save before taxes are applied like if you paid for health insurance or put money away into a retirement account (this lowers your taxable income). This is a super watered down version of tax law in the US. There are tiers and loopholes and credits. It's a big shitfest.

Gee I wonder why things are the way they are. (A) Make paying taxes as unpleasant & visible as possible because that increases political support for cutting taxes & doing flat tax things (B) Make interactions with government agencies as unpleasant as possible to propagate the belief that the government is inefficient and bad US tax prep is painful because that directly furthers Republican political goals. It's from Grover Norquist / Americans for Tax Reform lobbying, not Intuit lobbying

my gaming chair and industrial-strength cpap machine are itemized deductions apparently. The chair has to be replaced almost every year due to the oozing pressure sores, but we can count on that deduction at least. redshirt posted:... is your wife single?

Mine sucked this year because I dumped the fraction of a BTC I had from 2011 and I didn't know how that's supposed to work. As soon as I filed I realized I did it wrong and had to do an amendment.

GentleReject posted:IRS: You owe taxes. Nah that last line is more like IRS: You owe us this. Pay it. The IRS motives aren't really malicious they just want the money owed.
