Listen, I’m not complaining. I’m just saying I would notice. I like paying taxes to help everyone.
It does affect me though, because most of my money goes straight into retirement accounts so I’m not taking home “that much” (don’t get me wrong, I still take home enough to be healthy, happy, etc.). But I haven’t had a job for months and I’d rather not dip into retirement so that 10k would be appreciated right now. But of course I have a backup plan, most people do not. So yeah I think most people would like having to not pay taxes during a government shutdown.

I’m not a tax expert but I was mostly thinking of payroll taxes. What kind of taxes are you paying while unemployed?
