Seething over here...

I'm pissed off right now. Just did my taxes (twice, just to double check myself) and I owe the IRS $19. Sure its a nominal amount, but considering the fact that the federal government deducts at least $125 from each paycheck, one would one assume that she would some sort of refund come tax season. Where the hell does the money go? I don't see the benefits of it. Not in my community, not really anywhere in the US. I want to see a statement summary! Who in the hell creates these tax tables? What is it based on? Why are the calculations so schizophrenic? I'm not going to bitch and moan about having to pay taxes, but I feel like Uncle Sam borrowed money from me and when I asked him to pay me back, he's like, "bitch, fuck you I ain't giving you shit...and the next time I want money you will give it to me or I'm charging you interest."

I just want a tax refund. Is that too much to ask? The fact that I'm single, I don't have dependents, assets, or even that many deductions is not working for me...a chick just wants a little something back for those hundreds of dollars deducted from her paycheck monthly.

I feel like crying, although I don't do the whole raw emotion thing.
