My fiance got a $1400 x-mas bonus from her work... which was pretty sweet. That'll go towards some nice presents for family... we thought.

But no.

$500 in federal taxes later (plus other things like insurance and health care).... and we have $800.

It's still $800... I'm not going to complain about getting an x-mas bonus no matter what amount, but the fact that the government, as bad as it is already, taxes a "bonus".. especially by that much is just sickening.

I vote that they change their name from "government" to "scrooge"
