    This is absolute horse shit. There is a stark difference between the two parties. One has a president in the white house who is about to join the picket line for the UAW strike, who made sure the rail union got what they asked for, who tried to wipe out college debt for millions of Americans (that was fought and blocked by Republicans because…reasons? But let’s bail out the next corp or mega bank when they do some shady subprime shit).

    Functionally, republicans are doing everything they can to directly or indirectly fuck over wage earners and the Dems, while not perfect by any stretch, are at least attempting meaningful changes. Hell, a few republican states are peeling back child labor laws. They are also torpedoing the education system and running off good teachers.

    Name a Democrat run state that’s banned books, or passed ridiculous laws for teachers to follow.

    It’s not even close. And pretending it is causes apathy. Or gives apathy an excuse to grow.


  • I never gave them a chance because their name screamed: scammy site designed to lure old people into file taxes there.

    But last year someone on here or reddit kicked off a thread and tons of people were singing it’s praises.

    So I checked it out after TurboTax was trying to charge me like $230 to do my taxes.

    It was easier than TurboTax and I got the same numbers at the end, so I decided to go with them. I ended up spending $10 or something for the ability to refile amendments later or something. Honestly, I wanted to give them some money because I want them to stick around.

    It was a great experience. I’ll be using them moving forward.
