on tax breaks .. i did the math
you know, the stats, thanks to the * tax breaks
the $57,000/year average earning taxpayer got a $1090 tax break and
$1,200,000 average rich person got a tax break of $78,460 doesn't mean much to me.

But I did the math. OUR tax break is 2% and THEIR tax break is 6.7%!!!!!!

1. yeah - i found that too....
someone on another site had found a tax break calculator. for her it was 15.7% (she had to have fudged thos numbers tho because she is a dedicated freeper AND she couldn't tell me what she paid or got back on state, claiming she didn;t have her tax return in front of her).

A friend got 6% and he makes good money (nowehre int he 1.2 mil range i don't think)

and i got a 1.9% increase. compared to my 100% increase in State taxes, it sucked.
