Basically it is how it works with your paycheck, except that it is ultimately your option on how much of your paycheck goes to taxation. You can always claim a larger number of dependents, allowing the government to take very little, manage your own money throughout the year (i.e. savings account, where YOU get the interest instead of the government), and then pay the taxes at the end of the year.
Why should everyone suffer because of a law intended to protect stupid people that can't manage their money? All horseplayers hurt with a law such as this because it hurts the churn by taking money out of the pools...
