EDIT: A lot of you are reading into the tweet while still somehow agreeing with the overall message. No one is saying we should eliminate music programs or that we should teach toddlers about healthcare plans. The tweet is making this thing called a --checks notes-- joke, that also conveys the message that schools could teach more practical skills that young adults will need going forward.

A kid who complains about not learning taxes in school. Would never of paid attention in those classes in school.
Would never of
It's "would never've" or "would never have". Who wasn't paying attention in class?
I didn't pay attention to grammer because that's for dorks who use the internet toooooooooooooo much
wow sick burn
WOW THANKS!!!
Being exceedingly pedantic about grammar to "own" somebody you disagree with doesn't make you right, it just makes you an asshole.
This is barely a grammar issue and more of an ignore issue, besides it completely fits the topic this time.
Ingorance of what? Not writing perfectly 100% of the time?
And it doesn't "fit". They're taking a grammatical issue and inflating it to dismiss their point and insult them. Regardless of what mistakes they did or didn't make, everyone knew what they meant. Making it a "gotcha" doesn't accomplish anything useful.
There's genuinely nothing wrong with pointing out grammar in a normal context, it is obviously awful when you dismiss someone's point over it though which they don't do here.
That is literally what they did
It's "would never've" or "would never have". Who wasn't paying attention in class?
The only point of making a comment like that at the end is to dismiss and shame someone for making a mistake.
Helping someone learn is usually helpful, though perhaps not always wanted. Doing so to call them stupid is not.
According to this exact logic the original commenter did the exact same thing but to the original post.
I don't see it that way, but in what way would that matter?
Taxes are just a really long and complicated math worksheet
The IRS gives you a 100 page step-by-step manual, and only requires addition, subtraction, multiplication and (rarely) division. For someone who just has a W-2, you fill out one field for income and do the math for the tax bracket.
Refigure your depletion deduction for the AMT. To do so, use only income and deductions allowed for the AMT when refiguring the limit based on taxable income from the property under section 613(a) and the limit based on taxable income, with certain adjustments, under section 613A(d)(1). Also, your depletion deduction for mines, wells, and other natural deposits under section 611 is limited to the property's adjusted basis at the end of the year, as refigured for the AMT, unless you are an independent producer or royalty owner claiming percentage depletion for oil and gas wells under section 613A(c).
And why* can’t we just get a pre-filled tax return and confirm it yes/no?
Because that would hurt the poor b/c only the wealthy would still hire tax experts if tax returns were pre-filled.
Naw, the current system doesn’t hurt the poor at all!
*according to lobbyists like Intuit, maker of TurboTax
I think the bigger issue is that too many of the non-poor are willing to vote against their own interests. Europeans don't hate paying taxes, but they want it to be simple. Americans hate paying taxes, and too many of them can be conned into thinking that it's bad if the government makes it easier.
I was taught the 140ez in school, most kids didn't care.
I was taught budgeting in middle school where they actively taught people 3/4 of your monthly paycheck NEEDS to go to your mortgage.
I thought it was bank propaganda looking back on it.
3/4ths is definitely house poor living. There is some benefit to going as big as you can afford though since moving is a huge pain, buying a bigger better house up front can save a lot of headache and possibly money, but even then staying under 40% seems like a good idea.
The hell you were
