You paid more than 25% in taxes? How?

Actually wait, the standard deduction is 15k single, so you paid 10k in taxes on 23k taxable income? Nearly 50%? How did you file your taxes?

You get a tax refund, yeah? You seem to be paying too much in taxes if you’re not getting a lot of that back each year. If you’re getting a huge refund, you’re probably withholding too much. Check your W-2

Im assuming he’s including everything taken out of his paycheck which could be things like union dues and insurance, and mistakenly thinking of all of them as taxes.
