Tax Refunds R Us...

It's obscene how much I pay in taxes each year...it seems like a lot when I get each paycheck, but when the W-2 comes, the total number is shocking! I feel only slightly better having now done my taxes and knowing that I'm getting a refund from BOTH the Feds and the State. It's going straight into my savings account, but at least it will be MY money and not someone elses. (I know, where's the Democrat in me when I make these comments???? What can I say, I'd rather control where I contribute my money...can't say the Feds or the State do a very good job when they have control of it!)
