Dear fed and state govt.

You and your idiot tax structure can kiss my lily white behind.

We both fill out 1040EZ, quick ten minutes and done. Then we start on the state forms, endless, stupid and because we've had a Civil Union we are required to file jointly, meaning we have to fill out a fake (never mailed) third federal form "as married" to get the info for the state form, in addition to a new Form CU.

We would be getting back an additional $336 from the federal government if our marriage was recognized. This makes me very angry! Two straight people can meet, get married five minutes later and get the extra money, we've been together 23 years and we just keep getting screwed.

Signed,

One very disgusted taxpayer
