Solid Snake07 07/19/21 1:36:21 PM #9:	g980 posted... @averagejoel explain to him how this works He blocked me months ago. Besides he's not going to know what he's talking about either. Charitable donations are deductable from your taxable income, not the taxes you owe. And the deduction is limited to a percentage of your income. So even if you literally donated every cent you made you're still going to owe some taxes --- "People incapable of guilt usually do have a good time" -Detective Rust Cohle <cite>Solid Snake07 posted [p:956246384] in Why do you...
