taken out for what? why isn't it where? (specific W-2 boxes would be helpful).

Withheld monies from your paychecks are in boxes 2, 4 and 6 of your W-2. The amounts in boxes 4 and 6 are never refunded.

You do not get back all the Federal or State taxes withheld, just the amount (if any) that is in excess of taxes owed.
