How does paying taxes make you feel?

Paying taxes didn't bother me until my tax dollars started funding the ridiculous war that we are in. It also bothers me when I am paying too much money in taxes every year. True I get a big refund back, but that means that I am basically giving the government an interest-free loan, and that makes me angry.

Do like I do. Just don't pay taxes. I find it's easier to live with myself if I am not supporting a fat, over-bearing uncle...

Paying taxes.  It's easier to handle.

I send in checks.  If the amount that I owe is a lot, I usually send in some of it and a note along with the check stating when I will be able to pay the balance.  IRS does work with you.\n\nAlso, I get any refunds direct deposited into my account.

Which country are you referring to?\n\nIf you are not from Finland I wouldn't complain about the level of taxation ;-)\n\nTaxation is a function of population and the standard of 'service' you get from your government (notwithstanding maladministration) i.e. if you get free health-care you pay more tax but you also pay for things you might not like or appreciate (benefits, overly 'politically correct' projects.\n\nNo-one likes paying tax but it is a necessary evil.\n\nPeace out

What?!? And all these years I've been paying. . .\nNo, we are absolutely required to pay income taxes! We actually OVER-pay each year, and then in the Spring we get a partial refund. That's always nice, to help cover any credit card purchases we may have made at Christmas, or to do a home improvement project. But many Americans end up having to pay in even more, because not enough has been deducted from their wages throughout the previous year. OUCH!

Some people, such as yourself, are creating awareness of the issue.  That is at least one thing the average American can be (and is) doing in the fight against injustice.\n\nI would advocate the following: \n\nStop paying taxes.  At the very least, recognize that our own money is being used against us.\n\nAs for the second question, try stop paying your taxes, see what happens.  This is why people pay the taxes, and accept the injustice.

The process is much like any other job interview.  They want to know your technical tax knowledge and your tax experience.\nThe pay will depend on your experience. The stress level will depend on your assignments, supervisor etc.  It's just like any other job except the rest of the population looks at you with disdain.  Good luck

You and everyone that pays taxes.  We all pay for the services that are provided by the federal, state and local governments.

Yeah, I feel like I just charged up a bunch of crap on my credit card. The tax cut is only a LOAN; you're gonna have to pay it back.

i'm with you man, plus they do pay taxes when they buy stuff. \nin my opinion it's just wrong to tell people they have to stay in a situation that they themslves feel is hurting them. you can't help where you are born, but you can do what ever it takes to improve your own life, and the lives of those you love. i think people don't ever try and put themselves in their shoes, to imagine what it would be like to be a poor sugar cane farmer looking for a better life, and being denied a any legal chance to change things.  of coarse we have to have rules and procedure, but we should be more leanient and compassionate to the situations of all the worlds people.
