<i>"Smaller-than-expected tax refunds and rising individual tax receipts will . . . . reduce the $521 billion deficit projected for the fiscal year by as much as $100 billion.</i>
Exactly what here even suggests a tax <i>cut</i>? They don't even bother with the "refund" you have to give back the next April any more.
Speaking for myself (and my wife) - we got the same $170 refund as last year. However, we had $2,000 <i>more</i> in medical costs that were deductible this year - otherwise, we would have owed big time.
Just out of curiosity, has anyone on this board making less than $250K had a tax cut in the last 4 years? I know I haven't - except for the aforementioned $600 "loan" we got in 2001 - and had to pay back in 2002.
