Total witholding?

43%. Federal was 30% of the total witholding.

Now I know why Hugh is so mad. I'm going to refile my w-4 as "Single-2" for the rest of the year, fck 'em.

Paid off my fun-time debt, so I guess it's not a total anger-fest.
You have to change your w-4. The IRS has made the deduction higher just this year.
They want to use your money to keep up. Then next year if you have a tax refund coming, you might get an IOU.
