Taxes are tough for the regular guy. I’m trying to change my federal withholdings which led to a number of forms with very important sounding questions such as “Enter the number from line H, page 1 (or from line 10 above if you used the Deductions and Adjustments Worksheet).” And that’s just the first question. There’s about 40 more. Picking another at random, “Divide the amount on line 7 by 3,700 and enter the result here. Drop any fraction.” Dude. Come on. What does ‘drop any fraction’ mean to the regular American? It means nothing, because the regular American doesn’t know what a fraction is, let alone Line 7. Speaking only for myself, if the math goes beyond “large,” “extra-large” or “extreme supersize,” I’m lost.
Aren’t you glad that at Launch Day headquarters, there is no math in our debates.
Just be sure to drop any fractions.
