    I don't really blame my Dad for it, he's in a pretty bad spot money-wise. He has to support him, my stepmom, my sister, my two stepsisters PLUS the newborn twins one of them just had, my little brother, my cousin that lives with us, two dogs, a turtle, AND myself whenever I come over. We had so many people living with us at one point he had to set up some new walls and doors in what used to be my little brothers toy room to turn it into two separate bedrooms.

    He voted for Trump entirely because of his belief that if he became president again, we would be as financially stable as we were when he was first president. Back when we could afford going on a camping trip twice a year, back when our fridge was regularly stocked with ingredients to make our own lunches, back when he could afford to buy a whole 200$ game console for my birthday, ect. That hasn't ended up happening and every time I get a glimpse at the news he's not any closer to doing that. If my Dad was ever a "Trump supporter" I doubt he is now.

    Trump's entire first term economy was good because the stupid shit he is doing now was blocked by the norms that used to exist. He coasted on Obama's recovery till the pandemic.

      Find your masters. Find their children. Vote for every last one.

      Then stop paying fed taxes.

        Why can't a leftist candidate do that? What's the secret sauce? Is it violence, or the threat of violence?

        Stupid followers that need to be told to hate someone.

        Could probably succeed on a "hate the billionaires" ticket, if these people weren't so programmed with capitalism.

              It’s corporate socialism later, when the government bails them out.

                  I’m wondering if the open source work that was released can be built out in a way that we could still generate tax forms to send in.

                  It’d take some effort to make sure it’s following current tax code however:

                  https://docs.openfile.tax/en/latest/reference.html

                    Taxes are taken out of your checks before you are even paid. This isn’t practical.

                    I do have to wonder if everyone stopped paying federal taxes how that would fuck over Trump. Like, would he admit he’s powerless against the numerous? Would he just lie and pretend the money is there? Would he just not pay the bills like he has historically done?

                    It’s fun to imagine what he would do facing adversity.

                        taxes are

                        Get paid under the table.

                        would he just pretend

                        Yes. Obviously. Money's fake anyway. But that would heighten a looooot if contradictions and fracture a lot of coalitions on the right.

                          You can still use free fillable forms, you can fill out the raw tax forms yourself online and can submit them online there. Not the best UI, it's literally just the forms, but you cut out the middle man so they don't get more money to lobby congress to keep this dumb system going. It's also free if you make more then $85,000 , which alot of the "free" software isn't.

                          I've always just got the forms from the IRS site and mailed them in. If they're going to make me work for it, I'll make them work too.

                            I managed to get to use this last year before Cheeto Mussolini got rid of it. It was simple, straight-forward and free for the basic filings. Of course that fucking twat waffle would get rid of it.

                              These idiots take their single w2 to the H&R table at Walmart and give them a third of their return. It doesn't affect them.

                              (I'm making up the third, I have no idea what they charge)

                                Yeah you can definitely still do it on your own it's just very complicated for anyone who has more than just a job and no investment, property, etc. like a dude with one job who rents an apartment and has nothing else would more than likely have an easy time doing it, the hardest part for them would probably be the mail since no one does physical mail anymore lol

                                Edit: shit that just reminds me, I don't even have a printer!

                                    Most free tax services have a income ceiling and the free service is being subsidized by the government. So we are paying our tax money for it, it’s never free. I made decent money so I won’t get the subsidized free service most likely. It’s not that I can’t afford it, it’s just that it’s complete bullshit that they spent the tax money creating a great free tax service and their shelving it to prop up fucking private corporations further. I should not have to pay a second time to a private company to pay my taxes easily. The whole system is fucked. I’m so sick of Trump‘s bullshit. I hate him and these fucktard conservatives so fucking much.

                                    *This is more than just this tax program that has me so mad. I hate the direction of America on so many issues.

                                        Well, if you don't have a complicated tax return, meaning you only have a 9-5 job and no other income streams. You can file it yourself.

                                          Normally I would be easy, but I’m dealing with the federal tax credit for solar. Getting it in under the wire before Trump‘s dumbass cancels the program. Could’ve done it myself with the free site. Probably going to go with a local tax professional now. If I’m gonna spend money, I’d rather go with a local person than giving money to these fucking websites. Their lobbyists got the IRS website taken down in the first place.
