When you pay little in taxes but get back thousands of dollars in taxes that is the reason they get excited. We pay in a boat load but get very little back. We plan it that way. No use letting the government keep our money all year without paying any interest.
Socialism is a new way of sharing.
Getting a refund means you paid too much. I owe a couple hundred grand so refunds are a thing of the past for me.
When you live from day to day and week to week, it's a big deal to get a refund.
Why celebrate govt. giving you back your own money which they've held for at least a year without you having access to it for any reason? & no interest aid on it. I tried my entire career to make the zero column on money owed. Didn't want to owe, didn't want to be owed. Alas, it's not possible!
