Or perhaps we just have a bunch of idiots with poor memories and math skills.

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- Taxpayers received an average refund of about $3,000 last year -- a 5% boost from the previous year.

The Internal Revenue Service doled out refunds totaling $328 billion -- a nearly 3% rise from 2009 -- to taxpayers who filed their 2009 tax returns last year, the agency reported.

That comes out to $3,003 apiece, up 5% from the average refund of $2,859 taxpayers received in 2009, according the latest filing statistics from the IRS.

Guys, guys, not so fast. There was that tanning bed tax, have you forgotten? Therefore, taxes increased.

Wait - he killed her in a tanning bed full of tacks? That's just sick & wrong.
