Unfortunately this is flat out incorrect. In 2010 the withholding allowance was increased to 65 lbs. You are being confrontational when you state your opinion as fact without supporting evidence. (Un)fortunately, proving something false is significantly easier than proving something true.

This would imply that there are indeed haters towards you, which I haven't seen so far in this thread. Respectful disagreement is not hate-- rising above hate is honorable, rising above a respectful disagreement is insulting.
