How much of that are they returning though?

Tax returns are dumb.
Stop taxing people if you're going to just give it back.
And stop giving people a surplus (A return in excess of taxes paid) just because they have kids out of wedlock or decided McDonalds was a fine career choice for their life.

This country is effed man lol it's never gonna get better.
