That $13,000 standard deduction beat deducting the chunk the ex gets, which used to take out a lot of tax, but however that 13K is figured, it didn't do near as much. In the long run, it doesn't matter, keep collecting taxes at this rate with the current spending rate, and the country will still go bankrupt.

On a better tax subject, I get a bigger refund on my property tax (a homestead thing in MN). Since my property tax went up a lot...

On a more cheerful subject, it's snowing again. I need some comfort food.
Mike, I tried to compare this year's return to the prior year. My personal return is 30 pgs long and each company's is close to that. Income the past year was substantially higher than previous year. With the increase in personal deductions and a 20 % qualifying business deduction. Using the Tables for 2017 tax year, My taxes were almost 33% lower this year than what they would have been in the prior year. Believe me..it was NOT Nancy Pilosi's "crumbs"....Thank You ,President Trump.
