Biden's inflation economy: inflation hits 40 year high

[Suppressed Poet]

Eff the IRS. Just filed and paid our tax bill yesterday. Last year was best ever crazy good for family income, mainly do to my wife’s business (muni bonds). Makes me sick what we paid in total taxes.

Also eff Dallas county. We just got our tax assessment property valuations and they raised both our residence and one investment property (rental) disproportionately. At least I can fight that and will.

Eff’n hate paying taxes + absolutely everything just costs more now…. <end rant>

Your money is their money, don't you know? And because you hate giving it, and are well to do, you are a bigoted racist no doubt and hate the homeless. You should pay more now to assuage your guilt.

How about this for taxes irritation. We filled out our information as best we could. The state of NY owes us 500 and I owe the Fed 5k How is there such a disparity to filling out your taxes 'correctly'?

Yep.

And while for me it’s a lot of money, to the feds it amounts to a single bolt on a Javelin missile. For county property taxes I get to pay a portion of the salary for one of those cunt code enforcers that drive around neighborhoods seeking something/anything they can fine us for. Money well spent…

No idea.

In Texas we don’t have a state income tax, but they make up for it in property taxes. Well maybe not totally make up for it compared to NY, but our property taxes are getting ridiculous.

Doesn't really make up for it. Even though TX is pretty high at 1.8%, so is NJ, NY, IL, CT, PA, etc.. plus you make up for it with a lower average home prices.

Thankfully, I live in the Free State of Florida, where property tax is .89% and no state income tax.

yeah but you have Florida man. Is your face going to get chewed off today? Is he going to yeet an alligator into your car with a homemade catapult? You never know.

Word. My sister lives in Jacksonville. Florida is a great free state to live in.

While lower average home prices are indeed the case at the state level, Dallas specifically is not so much anymore. Everybody and their mom seems to be trying to move here and it’s driven property values way up especially the last 5 or so years. When you drive around the city you would think we’re right on the border of Comufornia based on the amount of out of state license plates.

He lives 5 hours away.. I'm not worried.

Went through my tax stuff a couple weekends ago. Every year we the wife and I see a small amount ($100-200) come back from Federal, but we always have to pay in around $500-800 to state.

I also know that my property taxes took a big jump this year - up almost $1000 due to a fucking levy that passed for pissing away more money to the public schools.....coming from a district where 5-6 years ago the superintendent was using public funds for his own personal needs and some how, some way, the district ended up having millions of dollars in a budget deficit that couldn't be accounted for that same year. In the end, the reason for the giant deficit was "an accounting error".

There are some 14,000+ households in the city I live in and the levy has everyone paying at least $50 more a month in property taxes and upwards of $150, depending on your home value. That means around $14million extra in property taxes will be collected this year that's supposed to go towards the public schools. I guess we see what happens from here on out.
