Josh Posted February 22, 2006 Author Report Posted February 22, 2006 4. As a student tax cuts technically shouldn't appeal to you, as a student you can claim a decent portion fo your tuition as tax credits, in other words as a student generally tax cuts don't directly affect you because come that time of year, you can generally claim all you paid in taxes back. Do I not get to choose what appeals to me and what doesn't? Relaxe dude, I haven't perfected mind my mind control just yet, so for now... Anyways I was just pointing out something that is generally a fact for university students, being that most pay little to nothing in income taxes so tax breaks may not be as benificial in comparison to other things. Am I not allowed to disagree with you? I didn't mean it in any derogatory sense, and my point regarding tax cuts was more pointed towards my parents, who will be bearing the brunt of my tuition fees. I think a little more cash in the bank would help them substantially. Quote

Nope, you have to apply them to your income first. Either way, tax cuts create jobs! Jobs are good for university grads! Go tax cuts!
