I Ran the Numbers

I got into something of a heated debate over federal taxes this weekend. Specially what tax cuts expiring will cost me.

Bush tax cuts expire: 1180
Obama Making Work Pay expire: 800
Tax Extenders: A wild guess here would be 100.

If the lame duck congress does nothing, my tax lability will increase $2080.

  3. There is some good news of late. I've found that a lot of the dumb shits who were among the "No more of the same"-ers voting in the last election are so disgusted they aren't voting at all this time.
    Which of course means us, the real patriots, have a much better chance than the polls reflect.
    I'm giddy myself.

  4. The wife (and local registered Democrat) says she's not going to vote.
