I made a $10,000 payment to close out mine a few years ago. Turns out I was right that Biden wouldn’t do anything meaningful on that front, and I was tired of being gouged on the interest.
I still support cancellation though. I wish we were spending 200 billion on that instead of another country’s war.
Dude you know they were referring to covid relief and not LOANS. “On what grounds” they said, obviously that’s not referring to paying back a loan and instead on what grounds would you have to pay back RELIEF funds.
That ‘we don’t know where 2 trillion went’ is a myth–that number represents accounting reconciliations between their myriad of different archaic and highly secured systems. It doesn’t mean that actual resources are missing or can’t be accounted for.
Good, this is going to be so annoying. If I send my roommate $1000 to cover my portion of rent (which I used to do every month at my last place) it’s not fucking “income” for them lol.
I just got a notification from eBay that said they won’t release my money from selling until I provide them with my SSN or tax ID because I’ve sold over $600 this year. It was probably like a total of $602 because I rarely ever sell anything on there except old tech stuff when I really need money.

As someone who has to pay back half of my COVID relief but so many rich people and corporations don’t- I feel this deep in my black soul.
$7000 on top of my student loans👍

Quick question? How come you gave to pay half of it back? On what grounds?
But also not /s
They “reassessed” my account and that’s all the reason they gave.
They know exactly where it went. Operation Freedom, abbreviated OF on the ledger…
“We don’t know where 2 trillion went” is a headline similar to the ones we’ll be seeing a few years after this debacle in Ukraine.
Weird example, as you’re saying pretty explicitly exactly where the money went, and plenty of people would be fine with it

I remember reports of literal pallets of cash going missing during desert storm
“missing”
I’m not reporting that someone sent me their share of the mortgage through an app rather than cash. Get fucked.
you don’t have to report anything, thats also why they do random audits.
Venmo reports it
Now, my advice for those who die
Taxman!
Declare the pennies on your eyes
Taxman!

The Pentagon: we don’t know where $2 trillion went.
The IRS: you sent $600 on Venmo. Don’t forget to report it.
The $600 paypal/venmo/etc reporting thing has been postponed and is not a thing for this coming tax season.

I’m honestly pretty upset about having to report “income” on reselling random old used shit out of my closet and garage on ebay all of the sudden.
Taxes have fucking been paid. This shit is not the same as wages and shouldn’t be treated the same.
