Are there loopholes like deductions for kids and interest on homes?

W/o getting to personnal do you pay near 62k in taxes?

Kids and spouse, yes. Home ownership, no.

I'm somewhere over half that sum, in income taxes.

Do you?

RACER X · 09-20-2011, 10:34 PM

Me, no
We, yes

Then there's $ 8-9k in property tax +tax on stuff...

So if a person doesn't pay taxes how do they pay for the military that defends them? Let Alone welfare and such.

Arguing about where the money goes is a diff topic entirely

Well, for starters they generally are the military that defends them.

How often is our military used to defend us? Afghanistan maybe, but I don't think I'd put Iraq in that category.

I agree.

So shouldn't that money be evaluated / re-considered? Just like social services?

Right. And one of those wars was completely unnecessary. I don't see you railing against THAT misspent tax money. Do you work for a defence contractor?
