I mailed in my income tax return for my refund on FEBRUARY 3.
I have not received that refund, still. That’s TWO FREAKIN’ MONTHS. Even during the past two Covid Years, this has never been a problem. What, are they sending it to the Nazis in Ukraine??? HELLO!!!! I’M HERE, IN WASHINGTON, IRS BOBBLE HEADS! (All the dogs in the neighborhood are barking now.)
I have tried repeatedly to get a real person at the IRS on the phone, because I’m NOT going to put my SocSec number into ANY online ANYTHING. If you want to know the status of your refund, fuggedabouddit. If you try to fake it, it shuts you down, sends you back into a vortex of automated, telephonic hoop jumping… What ALL this automation is all about… It’s about not hiring anybody to answer phones, AND about not giving a flip about customers (not that the IRS has “customers”— more like victims. When you call any of the numbers for the IRS, they just shove you into a circular automated thing that makes you want to throw the phone through the window… Well, it makes ME want to. I have little patience or appreciation for this automated horse pucky— can you tell? Arrrrggrrrrrrr.
I need that money. I will ALWAYS need money, until we live in Star Trek Mode and do away with money altogether. It’s infuriating to think that after nearly 45 years of slaving away in this country, paying an income tax that was never even ratified as a bill— https://famguardian.org/Subjects/Taxes/Education/16AmendNotRatified.htm — and so is illegal anyway, and you can’t flout it, because THEY JUST TAKE IT OUT OF YOUR PAYCHECK, no consent needed, so you’re in the game no matter what…
[Put this together with the Patriot Act, the NDAA, and the new switch-up that not Congress can declare war, but the PRESIDENT… ONE person! … can do it, and Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck. We’re so stupid to have allowed these things to happen…
After all those years of paying into Medicare and Soc Sec, I’ll likely never see a DIME of that, which by now, if they’d been proper money managers would be a LOT of money for my old age, but will likely be dried up like a dustball under a blow-dryer because our economy is gonna fail, hard. The SocSec was repeatedly pillaged, and thievery is now just par for the course these professors of duplicity and corruption are teaching… Even if my SocSec were still viable in 2028, I would have to work for another seven years to see the lousy little spittle of a retirement check, which wouldn’t even cover basic needs anyway. By then I’ll be festering in a cave somewhere, radicalized, a 67-year-old rowdy-ass, sneaker-wearing, AR-15 toting, 5G-sabotaging old lady.
I’m in a bitchy mood now! I’m on a ROLL here. I don’t want to finance, even in my infinitely teeeny weeeny way, any more wars, any more rich men, or death rays, or “exploration” of space, or fake pandemics, or gain-of-function research used to kill people, or anyfuckinthing else without a Vote by the People— DIRECT DEMOCRACY NOW, dammit— which would be faked and phony anyway… I’ve had quite enough of this blatantly and outrageously and hideously corrupt cabal of thieves, conspirators, and rat bastards we call a government… (Sorry, actual bastards, and real rats, no correlation intended.)
I want LOCAL GOVERNMENT, and DECENCY, and GOOD JOBS, and HEALTHY FOOD, and CLEAN WATER, and KINDNESS toward children and old people and everybody in-between. I WANT an END to central banks, and central government, and central intelligence, and surveillance, and chips in our brains, wrists, up the wazoo, or anything other chipping area other than poker tables.
Maybe now that I’ve publicly said all this, tomorrow my refund will appear! Do you think? Has anyone out there got their refund yet? Or, allow me to re-phrase: Has anyone who mailed in their tax return, who isn’t jabbed, isn’t shouting epithets at government vehicles during rush hour, and isn’t hoping someone will come and train them to shoot out 5G towers, is on the CIA’s Shit List, AND has a serious lack of restraint in regard to the use of obscenities and isn’t a frat boy, got their refund yet? What’s that? Your CAT got his refund???
I wonder, if they DO keep it, and other people’s refunds, then maybe that will be enough to WAKE some of the folks still sleeping happily while the food prices go up, supplies go down, gas goes up, Covid returns, the jabs keep killing people, Ukraine is a fricken mess of NATO Nazi Nastiness with the US telling so many lies on TV it’s like a damn sci-fi movie… Oh, hell. I need a New Drug… one that makes politicians, and the Filthy Rich that pay them, and the Things Behind the Curtain, suddenly evaporate (and take all those stupid masks with them!).
Beam them up, Scotty. They’re ruining the Party of Life, and I am Not Amused.
How about starving the beast by paying the bare minimum? Many people cannot afford even that much...
