> People aren’t paying attention to tax bills that are getting voted on. But when they do their taxes, they’re forced to actually work out how much they’re paying the government. A bill or invoice they get in the mail wouldn’t have the same effect. Except they’re not working it out. They just have TurboTax do it then see they get a few thousand dollars for $35+ and a few minutes of work. Most people don’t understand that a tax return is money that was already theirs; They just see it as an extra paycheck.
