this year was awesome. i got all of my withheld money back (both federal and state).
then the feds gave me $1000 for the "american opportunity" credit and $400 for the "making work pay" credit.

I want my w2222222222222222222222222. I'm gonna ask people at work if they've gotten theirs yet.
you can file it before you get it. just add up all your paystubs.
note: i don't know the legality of that in every case. all i know is that i've done it and gotten a refund.

http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/years/20 … tack1.html <--- Not getting a refund... but he makes some compelling points about tax law. I keep getting fucked by those crazy tech provisions myself. I dunno why they added them. It's like congress just one day decided to say FUCK YOU to tech workers.

Ironically... it seems his horrific suicidal plan worked since now the times is addressing the issue.
"How a Tax Law Helps Insure a Scarcity of Programmers" should be "How a Tax Law Helps Ensure a Scarcity of Programmers"

USAGE There is considerable overlap between the meaning and use of insure and ensure. In both U.S. and British English, the primary meaning of insure is the commercial sense of providing financial compensation in the event of damage to property; ensure is not used at all in this sense. For the more general senses, ensure is more likely to be used, but insure and ensure are often interchangeable, particularly in U.S. English: : bail is posted to insure that the defendant appears for trial | the system is run to ensure that a good quality of service is maintained.
