It's that time of year again: various tax services touting "maximum refund," sundry retailers with "suggestions" on how to spend those rebates, and the annual Flight of the W-2's as employers inform us how much we got paid last year.
Oh, and something new this year: Box 12.
"What the heck's a Box 12" you ask?
Thanks to The ObamaTax, it's how your employer informs you how much you paid for your health insurance last year.
"Now wait a gosh-darned minute there, Henry. I know how much I paid - I saw it coming out each week."
Um, no: that's how much you paid in addition to Box 12.
What, you thought your employer paid for any of your health insurance? Not paying attention, I see.
Bet you thought he paid those unemployment premiums and Social Security taxes, too. Now you know.
