I look at my paycheck and I think "what a hell?!" they tax like crazy and all this they say they spend to improve our lives.... but in what way it's improving? It's harder to get a job... It's harder to live.... They cut the corners everywhere... but not the taxes... I look at the map and I see Iraq.... that's where may this bloody money go... Do you think the same?

I dont think there is anything wrong with them taken taxes out. Some of the things they may be taken that you think are taxes are things such as for your housing, elec, water, etc...
Though they advertise that this stuff comes free is does not. They just take it all out before you get paid so it just looks like taxes. If you dont like taxes then just go to the desert and it will be tax free. Either that or pin on a couple more stripes and it wont look so bad.

Don't forget, the military has taxes taken out of their paychecks too. In a way, they kinda pay their own salary. And thanks to Dems, they're losing benefits all the time.
Be thankful for your military. Without them, you might not even have a paycheck. Ever notice there hasn't been another attack on American soil?? No, I doubt you notice that. You're too worried about what the next trinket you're going to buy is.

i dont, i think "look at that, i just paid for my own dinner with my taxes" Thank you america for giving my husband a paycheck (no matter how small) its a tiny consolation for the 6 months he's going to spend away from his family. to make sure you can continue living the way you do.

The tax monies are not properly spent. We need to invest and not give so much. I'm all for helping someone who needs help (Katrina, Tsunami), but I'm weary of giving so much away with nothing given in return - not even loyalty. Sad.

Your income tax rate is lower than it's been in decades - enjoy it while it lasts 'cause when the Weak Sisters finally return to power the first thing they're gonna do is raise taxes on "the wealthy"; and you're gonna be shocked, just shocked, to discover that this includes YOU!!!

i am prior Navy and my husband is still in....more people should give us a little more credit for the things we do...we get crappy paychecks and life is hectic until you either quit or retire...
my family has moved 4 times within the past 1.5 years and i will continue to do it because my husband helps protect this country, he helps other countries that need help...

no, i think my paycheck is just fine, your obviously a bush hater, but i guess you forgot the first thing bush did when he went into office was cut taxes, basically if john kerry get into office he said he will raise them again

I look at my taxes and think "Damn, I could use this money right now....but at least I'll get it back when I file my taxes."

you have to remember if you live in a state that has a state income tax then you'll be taxed appropriately.
