You know that tax break of $7.69? The IRS wants some of it Back
Remember how kind and generous we all thought the young President was being when we got that swell tax cut of $7.69? Yea the one that increased the amount of your weekly paychecks. Well , Huston, we have a problem.
The Ap News reporting today that the tax credit was going to provide up to an additional $400 for individuals, and $800 for married couples. However the IRS withholding tax tables could cause millions of Americans a little headache come April 2010.
Oh and this does not just affect the Hard Working Americans, oh no it even affects retirees!
Like my father said, You don’t ever get something for nothing.

Lets see the Government can't even manage to manage a $7.62 credit properly, what happens when they are running health care?
Oh Yeah!!! What a DEAL this was supposed to be!!!! Oh, be still my heart, now you want it back?? um, yes Mr. President, I do believe I might have some change left from that cup of coffee and yogurt to which I treat myself once a week on you.
And when you buy something, or pay for a service, you will be taxed again.
I hope I still have change after the Obamateurs get done with me.
Tim (Turbo Tax) Geithner strikes again! As Secretary of the Treasury, he heads the IRS. Not only can't he get his taxes right, he can't even help you to get your taxes right. Yes, Houston, we do have a problem.
I saw the article this morning and immediately e-mailed a copy to my father. It should probably be sent to a few other people. If we can't get the IRS to fix their tables, at least we can be prepared when it hits.
