I just ran through my first tax estimate today. I can't see any way that 60-70% of my account is not going to get taken away from me. The account basis I have to use is minus $40K because I started with almost nothing and have taken advantage of my luck to pay off all my college debt. The Man is going to RealMan me. It sure makes you think twice about being an honest upstanding citizen. On the bright side, I feel good about paying welfare to crack mothers. It's good to know I help make all the Dems "programs" possible.
