I just moved into a higher tax bracket, I know, but seriously...I'm only taking home about $500 a week!

are all the withholdings for taxes, or are you having your medical insurance, 401(k), etc withheld as well?

remember, your FICA/Medicare is always going to be 7.65% of your gross wages. Your state taxes (if any) could be between 3% and 7%. I do agree with the person that said check your W-4 - assuming you have no other significant sources of income, make sure it says Single 1, and not Single 0.

Because, despite all the shallow and baseless rhetoric from G W Bush and the neocons, Big Government just keeps getting bigger. Remember, he's got a military engagement to pay for and Halliburton getting fatter from all those no-bid contracts.

Make out a dummy tax return to estimate how much your tax liability will be for 2007, and then submit a new W4 to your employer to adjust witholding to have that much witheld by year end.

Holy Moly - How many exemtions did you put down on your W-4??

I think that's what's messing you up!

I did notice we're not getting as many tax breaks as Bush always seems to "give" and you know exactly where all your money is going......right?

And it's nice to know that our government spends another billion dollars of our tax money every two and a half days in Iraq.
