So funny how many of these trolls are saying the exact same thing, using the same exact figures and arguing the exact same thing.

It's almost like it's only one troll who's trolling many different forums..... hmmm...

Dummy... You made more money.

You should have increased your deductions if you wanted more back.

At the end of the year... You made more money.

People who give the govt. an interest free loan, only to wait for a refund aren’t very bright.

I am sorry you are not Trump-rich with a team of accountants squeezing every last dime out of the new tax deal your rich buddies got you in Congress and then passed it off as helping out the little guy.

I have the opposite. I made slightly less than last year, but my tax refund went up by about $2,000. The tax code now contains a lovely 20% deduction for small business owners. And the tax code treats real estate agents as sole proprietorships. Plus I can section 179 pretty much anything I buy for my business.


I LOVE THE NEW TAX CODE. It's about time the tax code gave a break to the people who pay for all the freeloading vagabonds and other redistributive suckups.

Most people “made more money”, when they got to keep more of their money.

I haven’t done my taxes yet, but my income is Fixed with only the standard deductions. Since that deduction doubled for 2018, the Che k I must write to the IRS this year will certainly be less than the check I wrote last year.

That means I keep more of my own money.
