No Tax Refund for Californians!

Because liberal socialism doesn't work, CA residents that overpaid thier income tax may receive "registered warrants" instead of a check.

My office has projected that, in approximately 60 days, there will be insufficient cash available to meet all expenditures reflected in the 2008-09 Budget Act," stated a Tuesday letter from Controller Chiang to the directors of all state agencies. "To ensure that the State can meet its obligations to schools, debt service, and others entitled to payment under the State Constitution, federal law, or court order. California may begin, as early as February 1, 2009, issuing registered warrants...commonly referred to as IOUs...to individuals and entities in lieu of regular payments."

**** the gov't.
If you owe the state, they charge you ~11% APR, rack up interest, then raid your bank account(s).

Problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other peoples money..

Never overpay

Try and come out even at the end of the year. Some people look forward to getting that check at the end of the year but in reality you're not doing yourself any favors. It's better to owe or break even.
