Using turbo tax, I did a cursory "what if". I put 2017 w-2 num's into 2017 turbo tax and then used the same num's for the 2018 turbo tax.
The result was "just crumbs" of a saving. My effective tax rate was reduced by 3.6% which was a $19,000 savings. Obviously, AMT was a voracious beeotch,
I'll save everybody the trouble and self admit...."1st world problem"...."I'm paying my fair share", and am thankful to "all those people that helped me succeed" .....so I am contemplating sending that saving's to the government to help pay down the debt, achieve universal health care, establish free college for everyone(legals and "undocumented), rebuild the infrastructure, and...build a wall...I mean, uh... fence...er...barricade,.....uh,...slatted border?.....everyone can be placated
