4. Actually, if you owe, you are doing yourself a big favor and keeping
the government from holding onto your money interest free.

9. That $400 starts to fizzle out if you're single and make over $75K.

3. We got less. MUCH less.
I still haven't figured out why. I really needed it this year, too. :(

7. Same experience here.
I'm getting a big refund this year, whereas the past
two years I had a big bill.

Thank you, Mr. Obama. You done good on this one.

8. We're getting about $500 more back this year than last year, even though
our income was higher this year. To this I say: :thumbsup:
