FREE Tax filing is SOCIALISM!
-People who SUPPORT Trump’s Government buying a Stake in Intel!
UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 22 hours ago
If you support Free Tax Filing then you must support the Unconstitutional Anti-American Income Tax.
The Founding Fathers made a blood pact to NEVER do an income tax and ONLY raise money via Tariffs, which is the perfect and Godly way to generate tax revenues. Every president who has ever levied a national income tax has FAILED. And Trump isn’t going to fail this nation by letting people pay that tax for free.
By abolishing the free filing provision, we are going to come one step closure to guaranteeing nobody (earning more than $500k/year) has to pay it again.

Oh there’s still “IRS Free File”, which is a different thing where you have to go through a middle man to get it while they try their damndest to “upgrade” you to the paid version. And presumably they got some kind of money from the US gov either way.
Direct File was a sane program that cut them out and let people file their taxes completely directly. The leeches lobbied against it.

Buying a stake in Intel is not socialism. It’s state capitalism.

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 fix 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.

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 subsidize 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’m so sick of Trump‘s bullshit. I hate him and these fucktard conservatives so fucking much.
wildcardology@lemmy.world 6 hours ago
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. Just gonna go with a local tax professional. Could’ve done it myself with the free site probably but if I’m gonna spend money, I’d rather go with a local person than giving money to these fucking websites who’s lobbyists got the IRS website taken down in the first place.

I’m going to start a national Give Parents Freedom Act, where we will provide free daycare for any parent making under 100k/year! We will pay for it by cutting the military budget by 1%!
In my first 100 days I’m going to sign the mothers are awsome executive order mandating 1 year of maternity leave for mothers and 3 months for fathers. Employers will not be allowed to fire any new parent.
I’m also going to divert ICE money into a new consumer agency called “IYCIWFYU” (If you collude I will fuck you up) their entire mission will be to investigate corporations that are price fixing and stealing money from the people.
I’m going to make digital Tax filing FREE for everyone and divert all IRS investigations into people making over 5 million per year!

Fascism doesn’t have to model reality, just knit together a story that confirms underlying biases of the “middle class” without questioning the system that privileged them, but is failing.
Leftists have the advantage in that we can describe exactly why your material conditions are eroding while we are more productive than ever, but for someone who was privileged under capitalism, its easier to believe the system that privileged them is good and just, its just foreigners and minorities who are exploiting them.

BrokenGlepnir@lemmy.world 22 hours ago
I try not to feel bad when I’m wrong. There is a whole trillion dollar set of apparatuses at work specifically evolved and designed to trick us into falling for it. I don’t judge for being wrong, but for refusing to admit it when it’s so clear it is sometimes flabbergasting. I’ve tried to see what they see to be fair to them, but they believe an election was stolen because somebody walked by a mailbox in Philly. I can’t understand that level of guillibility if someone is willing to admit they are wrong.

I don’t think that’s it. Have you been on Twitter lately? Every decision he makes is followed by skews of pundits explaining why it’s actually a genius move and how what he’s doing is actually awesome, and without a thought the GOP supporters just eat it up. It’s absolutely nuts. I barely even see anybody pissed about the Epstein files anymore. The only people who supported him that don’t anymore seem to be the supernazis who consider him to be a puppet of Israel and “the Jews.” It’s absolutely fucked.

My Dad told me during a ride in his truck that he was voting for Trump again because he lowered prices for things in his first term and thought he’d do it again. Every bit of news I have seen of him since is shit that’s making Dads financial situation worse.
madcaesar@lemmy.world 15 hours ago
Fuck your dad.
No offense.
TeamTeddy@lemmy.world 12 hours ago
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.

Unforgivable to remotely support this pedophile who wants to murder anyone he doesn’t like, and this has been known about him for decades. Look at the central park five amd his years of vommentary about his own daughter, all before the first term.

Not_mikey@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 hours ago
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.

Fellow non-USians: no they don’t have to pay their government for the privilege of being allowed to file their taxes. “For free” here means “without the help of a tax accountant (and online)”. I was SO SO SO confused.
Asafum@feddit.nl 23 hours ago
It’s also not as easy as it is in other countries. It seems like most countries the government knows what you owe and you just verify it. In America the government says “we know already, but you have to tell me what you owe. If you’re wrong we’re coming after you.” So it is a bit more complicated for us and since it’s more complicated we use tax prep software or hire tax agents.
Trump will do anything and everything to make sure we have to pay some rich fuck…
Lumidaub@feddit.org 23 hours ago
Oh I wasn’t dismissing this as a non-issue or anything, it’s clearly bullshit and yet another reason for you to burn cars and billionaires. But I remember when I first heard about this, specifically the “(file) for free” was INCREDIBLY confusing because as ridiculous many, many things the US does may seem to me, (what I understood as) the notion of paying your government a fee to process your taxes was juuust a bit too far out.
You CAN still do it on your own though, just not online, yeah?

This has been the status quo for many years. Direct file with the government was released within the last few years, which is what Trump is killing.
Historically, you’ve had to pay someone like Intuit, H&R Block, or a local tax accountant to walk you through filing. Third parties that will all charge you a couple hundred dollars for the privilege, though the big firms will have online filing. You could also file purely by paper and mail, if you’re a psycho (confident that you won’t make audit-able mistakes).

i haven’t invested in intuit out of spite (former tax accountant here, the term you’re looking for is tax professional as there are too many worthless certs) but i’m really curious how much krasnov did. now the “easy” way to file in the US is turbotax, which is fine if you know how to answer the (intentionally obtuse) questions, which most people don’t. Now it’ll cost everyone at least $75 unless they raise their prices, which they will.
