    Well, I just filed and got back more than I ever did with Trump as President. Just another lie spread by that impeached liar.

    Probably because you made less money in Biden's poverty America.

    Biden is proposing to raise taxes on people that make more than 400k per year, that is more than fair.

    Don't know about everyone else but I personally have drastically increased my income under Biden.

    The labor shortage has been amazing for people in my field.

    Better than beating a dead horse with multiple threads on the same topic.

    Refunds aren't a sign of tax decreases just like owing isn't a sign of tax increases.

    I don't believe that unless you make over $400,000 a year.

    He didn't, but my refund will be lower this year then it was last year, simply because I don't qualify for the same tax credits this time around.

    Call it post pandemic greed from the types who also got billions in stipends during the pandemic even though they made huge profits. Oh, by the way, if you look at the rest of the world this post pandemic economy is universal. You can't blame Biden for this.

    Ocean shippers have quintupled their rates, and booked astronomical returns of $150 billion in 2021, up from $25 billion in 2020. Amazon just reported profits of $14.3 billion on the fourth quarter alone, double its fourth-quarter profits of 2020. The meat giant Tyson reported earnings per share up by 50 percent over last year, driven by price increases of 32 percent in beef, 20 percent in chicken, and 13 percent in pork. These price hikes to consumers go neither to farmers nor to supermarkets but to giant monopoly middlemen like Tyson.

    How much do you want to bet these billionaires got more stimulus money during the pandemic than most of Americans will make in a lifetime?

    Time for Biden to propose en excess profits tax. It has gotten out of control.

    Well, not sure what those were, but I know Trump only looked out for the rich. He needed to ensure he could make the laws to profit with his businesses. He did a lot of that while in office, and took advantage of any way to make more money at his golf courses where he spent most of his time.

    Im no financial advisor, but a tip - the higher your refund, the more you lent the gov't money completely interest free. Everyone else is making money off your money except yourself.

    2nd - inflation is a tax and it's currently the highest it's been in over 30 years. May wanna read up on it if you haven't already.
