Yes, but I made sure this year to review my payroll deductions to ensure I don't get a refund next year and instead will certainly owe some. No more interest -free loans of my money for them!
The federal government is the issuer of the currency, it spends money into existence thru appropriations, any taxes collected are destroyed, since once a dollar pays a tax, it's no longer a dollar. Prepaying taxes was never a loan, it was just you paying ahead of time into a tax, it funded nothing.
