Related: Robert Reich posted earlier today that Tesla paid ZERO taxes on $5 billion in sales (earnings?), so that’s just fucking great.

    We can’t. Taxes are deducted automatically by employers. Tax season is really just “donation season” for the tax preparation industry

      Isn’t there something with exemptions you can do to you don’t send them money ahead of time?

      • Yes there is. You can claim however many you need to make sure nothing is automatically removed. Most people can’t budget though so it’s a bad idea in general when they get that huge bill once a year.

        However talking about not paying anymore? Yep, go for it. I’m tempted to just pay my local and property taxes and say fuck federal taxes until shit improves.
