Broccoli Free Zone 2 years ago Taxation is legalized theft, established and legalized, by the thieves. Beca 2 years ago 10/10, sad…advantage based on age and experience! Hoping our elected representatives gain wisdom, guiding their judgement; am I alone, realizing our forefathers urgently established a new government because they saw contemptible corruption in the old countries? Seems like Congress is thumbing its nose at its citizens. jerryl 2 years ago Question 10 is wrong. If you have reportable income you have taxes withheld. In order to get those withholdings back you must file a tax return. It doesn’t matter how much you earned, you still must file a return. Kreu 2 years ago Should have had a question about Federal Income tax having been initiated as a temporary tax, to remind and educate people that the USG has forgotten to stop it, because they have created their self-licking ice cream cone. Mary Annie 2 years ago My father taught me to do my income tax return as soon as I had reportable income and I have been doing my tax returns ever since. I continue to be surprised that most of my friends only want to know that they will be getting money back! Wrong! I am proud that I make only an annual federal tax payment of less than $1000. And that doesn’t get mailed off until April 15! Bchris 2 years ago 10 out of 10 for the first quiz ever. How sad considering the subject! Melinda 2 years ago Got 2 wrong, the VAT and the last one. Since I retired I pay an accountant to do taxes. It works out to about $12 a month and is worth not having the aggravation. It helps that my taxes are simple. Of course, it doesnt include all the other taxes we pay (sales tax, property tax, etc.). Patty L 2 years ago 9/10…. Wish I didn’t have to know this much! Lol DL Reynolds 2 years ago 10/10 for the first quiz ever. Sadly, most younger people would fail miserably. We need to teach them these things. Bruce 2 years ago 14 out of 10? Margie 2 years ago 10/10 Mike L 2 years ago Not sure, but sometimes April 15 could be moved to April 16 or 17. Massachusetts has “Patriots Day” (battle at Lexington & Concord), celebrated no the third Monday in April. If April 15 falls on Patriots Day (third Monday), the citizens get to move the Tax Day to Tuesday. Boston Marathon is normally run on Patriots Day. (my wife is from Massachusetts) lol Rod Kuhn 2 years ago Question 5 is incorrect. An item that reduces gross income is a “tax deduction, not a “tax exemption”. I battled the IRS on behalf of my employer for 20 years!!! Danm80 2 years ago Missed #10. Oh well!! lilly 2 years ago 6/10 Robert Wippermann 2 years ago Question 2 answer should be “following the law”. Otherwise any and all deductions are Tax Avoidance. Lana 2 years ago 6 of 10. Lousy score. ROBERT 2 years ago Anticipated 10 of 10 but only got 7 of 10. Two I simply didn’t know and made a bad guess, and one I had a jerk motion that caused me to miss my target. KateL 2 years ago 8/10. No explanation needed. Phil 2 years ago 10 for 10 but was a pretty easy quiz. Judith Dunn 2 years ago I’m extending every one who hasn’t given me the information yet Fredrick 2 years ago 8/10 MarySummer Summerhill 2 years ago 8 out of 10 Carol 2 years ago 10/10! Wonder how many younger folks could pass this test?
