Ka-ChingTreasury receipts surge in April: After three years of rising federal budget deficits, a surge of April tax receipts brought unexpected good news to fiscal policymakers -- the tide of government red ink appears to be receding. posted by Ace at 10:43 AM
CommentsThat's not especially good news. I want my money back, you @#$%***&!!! Posted by: Slublog on May 5, 2005 10:53 AM
"In fact, we think the deficits are coming down." Wall Street wasn't buying it. Good news, but I'm reminded of that song from Rogers & Hammerstin's Tales of the South Pacific: talk, talk, talk, talk, talk, talk, happy talk, talk about things you like to do, you got to have dream, if you don't have have dream, how you gonna have dream come true?

Well I know I contributed $3,000 to their little "hey, look, people paid up" April surprise. Arrrrrghh! Posted by: Dave in Texas on May 5, 2005 11:01 AM
Excellent. The deficit is coming down, but I still got a 100% refund. Mmmmm... what is that delicious flavor? Oh, wait: it's Dave's white-hot jealousy. Yes, yes, Dave, envy me. Your desire is succulent on my tongue. Posted by: Pompous on May 5, 2005 11:06 AM
Bush's rate adjustments are a joke for the higher brackets until the AMT is reformed, but I supported it just the same because it pissed the liberals off so much. Do you think Karl Rove knew I would? Rabid partisanship means I'll take my screwing and like it as long as the other side wishes it was worse. Posted by: spongeworthy on May 5, 2005 11:17 AM
Pompous, Oh blow it out your squeakhole, Mr. 100% refund smarty pants guy. Posted by: Dave in Texas on May 5, 2005 11:26 AM
I claimed all my time spent reading and commenting on this blog as "Consulting Expenses Incurred." Yes sir! Getting me a fat check in the post soon! Heck, they'll probably even deliver it personally. Posted by: compos mentis on May 5, 2005 11:33 AM
Dave in Texas: Even if the Pompous one got a 100% refund, remember this: If he had been really smart, he wouldn't have gotten a refund, because he wouldn't have paid anything to the Government in the first place! Brad Posted by: Brad on May 5, 2005 11:40 AM
yeah, I know Brad, I'm just kiddin around. I try to keep it within $500 of zero myself. Bad planning this past year. Posted by: Dave in Texas on May 5, 2005 12:01 PM
Way to brag about being such broke-ass slackers. "Hey, I didn't pay shit in taxes last year! They're threatening to attach my Frigidaire box!" Classic hippie infestation. Posted by: spongeworthy on May 5, 2005 12:50 PM
