STFU you already told us you are a tax felon. Nobody believes you pay taxes.

This would get rid of all of the fiscal liberals.

Poor Schmickity, you're the REAL victim.

It would have to be weekly. I would also stipulate that if you didn't write the check, it would be withheld from the following check.

Meanwhile, back on planet reality....

I remember back in the day when people I knew wanted to show off their conservative bonafides, they'd talk about reading the Conscious of a Conservative or something.

Now you spew inane nonsense like how unfair it is that taxes are deducted from paychecks. Get a fucking life, you losers.

Not much different than withholding it in the first place.

STFU you stupid Dumbass wall building Military pimping corporate welfare queen.

Agree that payroll taxes should not be withheld. We should each have to scratch a check quarterly.

Payroll taxes should be abolished. The only thing that should be taxed are goods, services, dead people and all types of capital gains.

Yes, it is essentially the same thing, but the difference is when you have to actually sit down and write a check from money you already have, it hits home.

Where I would like to see it changed, is in doing away with the whole withholding game, then filing to see how much you can pull back.

I would much rather have a system where you simply paid your taxes weekly. I am fine with a progressive system, but everyone should pay something. The poor could pay 1%. Those making "88 money" could pay around 25%. But I would keep jacking the rate for people making ludicrous money, topping off at maybe 40%. But that would be for people making 5 mil/year. Our current system tops out at maybe 250K.

Ahhh, such a system already exists. You can use an Excel spreadsheet to enter your taxable earnings, calculate your taxes and then pay the taxes online. I do this weekly. Some weeks I pay taxes some I don't. Towards the end of the year, I catch up my deductible expenses and adjust my payments. Better than quarterly payments for me anyway. The Feds don't care as long as they get their money.

You do realize that the majority of the American public is so fiscally irresponsible and unable to understand and execute this concept ?

It would birth an entire new enforcement section of the tax Gestapo.

You are still required to file an annual return and play the stupid game of trying to prove the money you spent is worthy of deduction.

THIS is the root of the problem. It is also the root of the politician's power.

It shouldn't matter to government how I spend my money. Coke and hookers should have the same deductibility as a church donation. NONE.

The trouble is, there are millions of people that make a damn good living helping others figure out how to avoid pay taxes. And those people are in no mood to give up this racket.
