It is not really a tax cut for middle class if you - just change the withholding

Posted: Feb 12th, 2019 - 6:36 pm In Reply to: Taxes --- middle class getting hit the worst - Why was this so difficult to realize

What smoke and mirrors is this?

Who asked them to do that? How is that a tax cut, they just sneaked those withholding changes in so everyone would say, hey, I got more money in my paycheck! But that backfired bigly.

Did anyone notice the measly $5-10 per week you might have gotten extra? I think not.

But we will all notice not getting our refunds.

When they said we would get more in our paychecks I had no idea it meant it was just because they changed the withholding - not actually giving us more just taking less out of our pay so we don't get a refund!

This stinks. It's sneaky and it's not really even a tax cut - for us, anyways.

Bad form. A sneaky and greedy tax cut only for the wealthy, the rest of us got played.
