Typical GOP to tell the little guy they were too stupid to know the tricks to get the benefits then tells them to sit down & shut up. And stupid Trump supporters fall for it.

“Here’s the thing. For the most part, the IRS is telling everyone that they just simply did not make the proper adjustments on the withholding at the beginning of the year. So they have been making all of this money”

FoxNews tells followers to stop complaining about their tax nightmares

As Americans begin to prepare their 2018 federal tax returns, many are facing the unpleasant surprise that their tax refunds will be smaller this year or that they may even owe money to the government. This comes despite — or perhaps because of — the tax bill passed by the Republican Congress in late 2017 and signed by President Donald Trump, which Trump falsely promised would give everyone a tax cut, but actually raised taxes on many middle class Americans.

On Wednesday, Fox & Friends attempted to spin the situation, blaming taxpayers who should have somehow known to have adjust their withholding a year ago and should have saved more.

Noting that the average tax refund has dropped 8.4 percent since last year, guest and Fox Business Network host Charles Payne claimed Americans should have used their “fatter paychecks” more wisely.

“Here’s the thing. For the most part, the IRS is telling everyone that they just simply did not make the proper adjustments on the withholding at the beginning of the year. So they have been making all of this money,” he said.

He added that employers and taxpayers should have known better, because the Internal Revenue Service “put a lot more memos out” about how to recalculate payroll deductions.

“Of course most people didn’t do that. While people were obviously seeing fatter paychecks they were still counting on that refund they always got. Which is interesting because, you kind of hinted at it, that we would allow the IRS to have like a $2,000 loan, our money, right? Hold on to it because we overpaid. So people should probably consider making these adjustments anyway, unless you want to give the IRS two or three grand of your money to hold for a year. Maybe they can make the interest on it and you won’t.”

The “fatter paycheck” claim applies mostly to higher income earners rather than the average American. Most people did not notice a significant increase in their paychecks as a result of the bill, which mostly benefited the very rich and corporations.

“Refunds are a sign you’re overpaying the IRS monthly,” he wrote. “Most Americans got tax cut in 2018 paychecks — when needed the most. 90% of middle class got [a] $2,100 [average] tax cut.”

Rep. Warren Davidson (R-OH), who backed the bill, incorrectly claimed that tax refunds are down because most people “owed less income tax.” And Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX), who helped push the bill through the Senate, argued “less taxes = less withholding = less refunds” — a gross oversimplification.

Why people want a huge tax return is beyond me; just giving the government an interest free loan. Withholding is less; of course returns are going to be smaller.

Hundreds of deductions were destroyed. No home office deduction. No itemized deductions. Etc.

Unless you are a totally innept business person you know this and are purposely lying to seem more intelligent than you are. Not a far reach.

Trump and the Republicans told everyone we were getting a tax cut. They lied.

The only people who get tax cuts were the milionaires.

Correct and now FoxNews and the russian troll army on their site & Brietbart victim blaming telling Trump supporters it's their fault. Trump supporters are stupid but they know when they're being treated like idiots and they don't like this at all.
