    Plus 30 cents per transaction.

    Noted that you FAILED to address all of the other Anedot shortcomings.

    The above quoted post is post #8 in this somewhat lengthy thread.

    It's also as far as one needs to read from the start of the thread to understand what is ignorantly addressed in the thread OP.

    If they don't like the states high taxes, vote the jabrones out, the rest of the country need no bear that burden.

    Huffington Post?

    Find a real news source and then issue a retraction:

    Ethan Wolff-Mann of Yahoo wrote, "Average tax refunds are up 19% from last week, making them consistent with last year’s levels, the Department of the Treasury announced Thursday.
    Average tax refunds are up 19% this week.

    I know this is an older thread but I just read the first page and it amazes me that the violent left still hasn't figured out that tax liability and tax refund are 2 different things.

    Just got my taxes back and compared to last year
    Total income +7.3%
    Adj. gross income +13%
    Marginal rate -12% (25% to 22%)
    Effective rate -11% (18% to 16%)
    Total income tax -3%
    OH MY GOSH REFUND -23%

    So was I thrown under the bus? Should I be pissed and demand the new tax rates be repealed?

    With double deduction for kids, I'm getting the first refund in 8 years.
