Just finished up my taxes. I owe the Feds $78.00 this year and the state owes me $10.00 which I am putting toward next year's taxes.

I wrote in the memo of my check. "For use in feeding hungry soldiers only. Please do not give to banks or automobile industry, nor place in stimulus package".

Soldiers? So you just signed off on another war then.

The best way to ignite a bubble economy.;)

On the real, I have a bunch of friends in the military and notice I wrote food instead of bullets.
Right, so without your 10 bucks they could send soldiers to war without food. But that would violate the manual or whatever, so they couldn't go through with it. Now, thanks to your 10 bucks, they'll be able to finance.

So instead of sitting home in a bunker reading comic books because the Pentagon can't afford war, your buddies will now be shipped out to Afghanistan. :shifty:

I bet they'll be loving it. "Hey Aaron, thanks for the good eatin! We gots to finish this meal, it could be our last."

Thanks for ruining my stimulus joke Martin. :cry:

By the way. The ten dollars goes to my state taxes for next year, as that was my state income tax refund. Federally, I paid seventy-eight dollars.

lolwut? state tax is separate from federal? what for?
We're the United States of America. Remember that. States rights and all.

So each individual state has it's own laws, taxes, etc. You have to pay two taxes, state and federal. Generally you file them separately and if you're real lucky you get to pay township or city taxes as well.
