probably because they don't know and don't have the capacity to investigate what every american owes. makes you think.

Because it's an exercise in control. They force you to do it so that psychologically you get used to the idea of being owned by the state.

Just stop paying your taxes, fag.

Cause there are too many codes for deductions and crap. Some you have to provide receipts and claim them as business expenditures and shit. They should just simplify taxes already.

Better to have some corruption and bad govt spending than rampant tax evasion.

is this a joke?

They will. The return is voluntary. But if they do it, you won't get your deductions and tax credits.

Tax withholdings are actually fucking genius

if you had to pay your taxes in one lump sum there would be mobs on the streets every april

That's why we have them.

Psychological exploitation. People wouldn't stand for it if it were lump sum payments, but little nips and jabs over time, they gloss over.

19th amendment is unconstitutional anyway, fuck the IRS.

Brainlets overpay on their taxes while the rich actually spend their time, or hire someone to spend their own time finding every loophole possible to pay the minimum taxes necessary.

Not so much that, but they don't even see the money in the first place. Even the non brainlets really only have knowledge of what's being taken from them in an abstract sense. It's never taken from them because it was never theirs, psychologically.

Fuck, people are even EXCITED to get their tax returns back, they feel GOOD because the government held on to too much of their money and now they get some of it back. They've found a way to turn taking money into a rewarding experience.

that's what I'm saying senpai

This is the reason, you could theoretically lie or not pay taxes and get away with it without them knowing, but if you get caught then you go to prison so I wouldnt recommend not paying your taxes

I did up untill this new tax season, I'm a firefighter and buy a bunch of my own stuff for work and I have a side business doing construction, between the two I have a ton of shit to write off, this year it was mostly just firefighting stuff as I've moved away from my construction company and made most of my side money trading stocks, not much to write off this year and the standardized deductions changed so taxes where pretty easy this year

>Better to have some corruption and bad govt spending than rampant tax evasion.
You know we have both right?

taxation is theft

Because you retard they don't know
They know the general idea but leave it up to you to deduct shit they don't know about

>implement high taxes, government becomes corrupt and tax evasion increases tenfold
really makes you think

Just use the fucking turbo tax the federal filing is free. I started a business last year but it wasn’t profitable, I paid like $100 for the business tax service and ended getting a $2000+ tax deduction because I saved receipts from all of my business expenses.
If you factor in the opportunity cost of doing taxes yourself by hand, not using a software service is retard-tier.

if everyone decided to avoid paying taxes theres literally nothing the government could do. it will happen one day soon. if they steal the 2020 election to install a leftist mark my words Jow Forums will be on the forefront of making a viral internet collaboration where millions of us unite and refuse to pay taxes that will be used to bus in millions more shitholers and cuck us out further

you know you can mark a box that prevents tax withholding when you first set up your payment paperwork through your employer right?

The fact that you have to actively avoid it and most people don't realize that they even can only builds my case.

You're literally loaning the government money at 0% interest if you're getting cash back. If you had an IQ above room temperature, you'd realize how much opportunity cost you're losing not having that in the market.
People bragging about consistently large tax returns are telling the world they're fucking idiots. I understand being happy you unexpectedly got money back, but adjust your withholdings so you can be putting that to work for you over the year.

Make sure you never pay turbotax. Intuit lobbies against anything that simplifies the tax code. Do a google search for intuit lobby. It's fucking clown world.

you dont have to actively avoid it, in some cases you have to actively choose it. its up to your employer and how many w4 deductions you qualify for but yeah i agree on your previous comment that the reason most people silently accept their ridiculous tax rates is because it is taken out little by little each paycheck

this. also if you lose your money from being in the market, that is a tax deduction. so it really makes no sense to have the IRS withold your earnings

Intuit, HR Block

The tax prep software companies lobby to prevent that as it would destroy their usury
THey also lobby to make ever more complex tax code so you have to buy their software

No, they don’t know that. It’s genuinely alarming the lack of basic knowledge on display in some of these threads.

somebody should make a financial advice Jow Forums graphic that explains basic shit like this to zoomers and millennials

To all the brainlets ITT bashing taxes just remember one thing. Those taxes are used to rebuild our infrastructure and keep our military strong and running.

These fucking retards cant even figure out how to do their taxes, and you're talking about losing money by not having it in the market lmao

I ended up with an underpayment penalty of like 400 dollars. I think it might be because I started playing the stock market this year. I ended up losing money though...do you think the stocks are the culprit, or did i end up underpaying on something else? I don't understand what Im supposed to do, am I supposed to send the gov a check every time I sell a stock?

A run along the banks of the Reine river, like they planned in France is a more disruptive to innercity traffic. Just have a bespoke pepe to trigger people at the starting line and they'll be nun the weiser.

It's insanely easy to avoid taxes because of this, they rely on fear to get people to narc on themselves.

while we're at it, the fact that teeth require their own health insurance is also fucking bullshit

>probably because they don't know and don't have the capacity to investigate what every american owes. makes you think.
except a shit ton of other countries seem perfectly capable of doing essentially what the OP asked for

our problem in the US isn't a technical one, it's a political one--turbotax lobbies the fuck out of congress

they are also used to pay for pic related processing, transportation, resettlement, housing, medical, and welfare dependency costs

Why not you?

>I don't have the talent/skill
Nobody gives a shit. You're anonymous and we suck each others' dicks for mspaint comics anyways.

Anytime you say "someone should do x" start asking yourself why you aren't 'someone'.

You have a cool point about people not actually owning the money, which is why the feds cant tax people even though the person actually controls said money. It is kind of physiological, I don't think anyone cares though. More importantly, however, paying taxes is fine. Paying to much because you fail to practice due diligence with your finances is fine as well. Its even pretty cool the govt does the math for you and gives some back sometimes, I mean typically, if you send someone some money and you sent to much, you're usually shit out of luck. Either way, paying taxes is perfectly fine. It costs a lot of public funds to keep roads etc going. I know you're gong to say "well hurr small business can do it better" and I'm like "uhh, I don't think so. It takes a lot of expertise to work on projects like national highway systems". Then you'll say well "big companies hurr" and Ill be like "lol, a big company is almost as bureaucratic and corrupt as the fed and much less inclined to give a fuck about what anyone outside of their demographic wants."

>turbotax asks me if i put money into a retirement account, in case i might get a deduction
>i say yes since i have a 401k
>i get a 200 dollar deduction bonus
>i look up some stuff and i read that since 401k is already taken out of paycheck, i should say no to this
>i go back and select no
>the 200 dollars is still there
Am I going to get in trouble for claiming this when it was selected mistakently? I even fixed it but the 200 stayed for some reason.

>To all the brainlets ITT bashing taxes just remember one thing. Those taxes are used to rebuild our infrastructure and keep our military strong and running.
You know what a better idea is, instead of getting rid of taxes, the populace should be able to choose which parts of the government they want to fund, a democracy where each pound paid into the system is a vote.
That'd also give the government some incentive to actually be for the people.

because they don't want you to realize how much money they steal from you so it gets (((deducted))) from your payroll before you even see it

i dont have photo software besides MSPAINT and my comptuer is too slow and on the verge of dying. if i had a decent computer and photoshop i would make it in an instnat

Turbo tax actively lobbies against anything that makes the tax system simpler, they can fucking die.

only if you get audited

RETARD ALERT!

You can live without teeth entitled millennial fuck

Why not get a hashtag started right now? Just pretend to be a liberal btfo-ing drumpf. #notaxesfortrump
Now that would accelerate things if it took off

haha i know generally how much you all make by your comments

Wrong
Google TurboTax lobbying against IRS self filing taxes

Because big companies like turbo tax lobbied the government to make it illegal for the IRS to just do your taxes for you.

This is great, lets do this.

dumb idea senpai, just have the employer give you the salary after tax deduction

>paying taxes is fine
stopped reading there.

Those taxes are also used to support welfare leeches such as shitskins, single mommies, military industrial complex genociding shitskins in the middle east, lazy and inefficient government workers that are too uppity, corrupt politicians etc. etc.

You have to be quite the cuck to enjoy paying taxes. You are forced at gunpoint to pay for all of this shit you protest

no the IRS doesnt have the manpower to go after small potatoes like $200.

for fucks sake, bill clinton claimed a $550 deduction on old clothes he donated including his underwear lmao

I've always said government should abandon an income tax and just adopt either a sales tax or a vat. Everybody shops, so everybody pays.

i purposefully stopped shilling for this idea once Trump won the election because we dont need to add another crisis on his plate right now when he can barely govern as it is

they have no fucking idea what you owe, they only calculate that if they investigate

You can't do that if you earn wages. You have to set something aside. Either you set more than you need to or too little.

And the odds of you getting audited are laughable

looks like you earned your mcstank burger today

well, i also got a $1000 refund overall. so they're going to have to give me that money and i wonder if that increases your chance of being audited. honestly taxes always scare me, i feel like i have no idea if i'm entering them totally wrong. It asks me if the stocks I sold are taxable in my state, I just say "yes" because that sounds correct.

But wouldn't they spend more money keeping you in prison than what they would have got in taxes?

Jews like to complicate things for the common folk, and once you understand all the lingo and key phrases you realize how stupid and simple it actually is, and the words are just meant to make poor uneducated people "slip up" and make mistakes so the IRS can take more from you in the end.

When do you not have to pay taxes? I made.... 3,000$ in the last seven years? It was the last two years though. I only paid taxes when I was 20 and worked to pay off all my student debt. Since then I just write porn for money and that all goes straight to paypal... I never paid taxes.

Oh i figure it out already. And what I figure is never actually what I owe

holy shit, that's good.
>we dont need to add another crisis on his plate right now when he can barely govern as it is
but it'd be so entertaining, just imagine the chaos this might cause.
I advise keeping the hashtag vague enough to be used for any western country, like #notaxesforfacists

Whatvthey dont want you to know is that millions of people cheat on their taxes and get away with it. If everyone knew that then no one would pay.

Use this to your advantage

>if everyone decided to avoid paying taxes theres literally nothing the government could do.

of course. people are powerful when they act as a group. that's why it's so important to the elite that americans are psychologically conditioned to be socially ineffectual

well i dont know how tax colelction works in other countries. in america they are collected at the end of the year, so you can technically not pay them. i dont know if euronations are cucked to the point where taxes are collected from the employers before each paycheck or not

This honestly.

Checked, thrice

they don't "KNOW" exactly what you owe but want you to disclose stuff to them that they "could" find out about.

I'm sure the government would happily implement the system to monitor every cent of income and purchasing we do just so us doing our taxes will be easier and only for that reason alone.

yes but since the rise of the internet and mobile device era , people are more connected than ever. you are going to see instances of chaos develop on a massive scale which is hard to overstate and almost impossible to comprehend now that people have the tools to cooperate and coordinate for large scale civil disobedience.

why do you think the left is in such a rush to flood the country with 3rd world foreigners?

americans pose too great a threat to their control and they need to be diluted

i have posited numerous strategies here to undermine and disable a tyrannical government but i have also withheld a few which i deemed too powerful. our legal system, processes of government, and society have numerous vulnerabilities and are not designed with a cooperative populace that can act in unison. but if i came up with them, so will others. so it is really only a matter of time before you see mass cooperation among an unhappy populace and the results will be crippling and severe. you are going to see massive dives in the markets, credit ratings, runs of banks, civil unrest, electronic warfare, subterfuge from foreign adversaries. these things will all coalesce to undermine america soon, as a result of the technological advancements and democratization of technology implements

just look at the yellow jacket movements, this is only the beginning.

I did that all through Obama's time in office.

Proof for Jews burning Notre Dame

People who said "this" are poor fags or rich fags who make money via cash. If you are a wage slave even if you make 100K Plus per year, via a w2 style of employment your best bet is to file taxes because the money has already been taken out by your employer. Chances are unless you're a complete retard like "this" fools you won't owe money. If you do it's a democratic district's fault that you live in. You should move or Tarrant. Beyond that the IRS can't audit everyone and if you owe money and your taxes aren't star wars then you keep paying those taxes cause the rest of us aren't.

The internet provides a paradox that the elite didn't expect and haven't figured out how to counter. I forgot where I read it but a couple of years ago I came across an in-depth article put out by some think tank that had obvious ties to intelligence and defense. It broke down the Arab spring and the big take away was that the more a dictator tried to suppress the internet,especially social media, the faster the rebellion grew and the higher the likelihood they were removed from power. It makes sense if you think about it. Twitter and Facebook and so on provide a cathartic release for an unhappy populace. But it also allows that unhappiness to grow and put a spotlight on the government. So when they clamp down. It just pisses people off and recruits more people which makes the government afraid of them using it to plan and strategize which causes the government to clamp down harder and it just repeats. Until the government shuts it down completely which forces normal people into the town square where they end up meeting people more radicalized than them who also have access to weapons. That is basically what happened in Syria and Egypt and so on. It's also why they are pushing for deplatforming people but that won't work either, as it just puts the spotlight on them and makes fence sitters question why.

This is why you are seeing them try to force those platforms into self censorship and policing "hate speech" or wrongthink

>he only files a 1040
never gonna make it brah

Be burger ,
Go to prison for not paying taxes

The real scam isn't just that you have to calculate it out yourself, its that corporations who's entire purpose is to file taxes for you lobby the government to make sure that said calculations are almost impossible or too time consuming for most Americans to do.

The way the IRS does things is actually lobbied for by companies like H&R.
Capitalism is great and all but I do kind of hate it when they specifically cause the problem they are having you pay them to fix.

they don't know how much you owe them unless they audit you. they just spot check.

the tax code is complicated on purpose because normies are conned in the maze to pay full rate while investment bankers and stock brokers have accountants and navigate the tax code like a ship through rapids.

Just part of the fun of living in a neo-con GDP is the only thing that matters import lower wages mentality.

>Giving the government interest free loans
HA i get my own money back from the government after 1 year.

You're so fucking retarded it hurts. If you pay your taxes late you incur penalties and interest. If the government pays you late you don;t get shit. Shut up retard you're bragging about being cucked.
