It appears (although I cannot be sure) that they have only taken into account standard tax rates into their calculation - leaving out ANY deductions, etc. With deductions and such the average we pay is about 18% (last I saw anyway), not the 32% used for their calculation.
So, feel better - you've been riding high for over a month already ;D :-X Title: Re: happy depress the crap out of you day Post by: MFAWG on April 30, 2007, 08:29:19 AM Sorry, I forgot: Iraqi's get freedom and health care, you get *feces* and The Patriot Act. Why do you hate the troops? Title: Re: happy depress the crap out of you day Post by: 1puttpar on April 30, 2007, 09:25:37 AM Tax days worked 120
