Anyone check the fake inflation today?

[HHusky]

There was a prominent politician a few years ago who gave me the creeps even before the skeletons in his closet were known. That was John Edwards.
Newsom gives me the exact same feeling. Don't hold your breath waiting for me to support him. I hope he never comes close to the nomination.

You'll support him because you will be told to. You going to vote for Trump?
Dishonest to your core

No. I won't vote for Trump ever.

75 percent work for you?
I paid for social security.
Your lame insistence that only ss can be cut is pathetic. Your party uses ss cuts against the GOP. You didn't think we'd notice?

Your "I paid for social security" perfectly illustrates my point. Everyone did. The proper response by someone who believes we must balance the budget through spending cuts only is this: so what? But you can't see that.
Your party won't cut SS and Medicare and neither will mine.

So what if the government lied and spent your pension
Pay more taxes
80 percent?

80%? You're getting hysterical, ma'am.
The highest marginal rate of federal taxation now is 37%—and your effective rate is far lower.

 

[RaceBannon]

Half the people don't pay federal income tax
THEY PAY A LOT OF OTHER TAXES
We pay 50 percent in taxes
ITS ONLY 37 PERCENT
Fuck off

Remember SloJoe was the big pusher to tax SS which was a tax you were forced pay into a fund for later in life that they have repeatedly stolen from and given to those who did not pay in including illegals and now they tax it again…

Dazzler conveniently forgets the 15.3% tax on employees wages - that phases out for high wage earners.

Nothing in this world worse than the 70yo guy who’s across the finish line to retirement but now in favor of high federal income tax because he no longer files a W2.

You don’t pay 50% of your income in taxes, Race. You know it, I know it, and the American people know it.

Some of the ancients here can tell you that this isn’t an argument I just started making recently. Some of us were having these delightful exchanges when you were in middle school. (That’s why they’re so fond of me.)
I’m still working, though W-2s are for when you work for someone else. Not many W-2s in my career.
And fuck you, I’m not 70 yet.

Stupid or obtuse?
Is the income tax the only tax out there?

Property tax
Gasoline tax
Electricity tax
Sales tax
Capital gains tax
Let’s throw in the 520 toll too since it’s an extra cost paid to government
There is 5 more taxes there plus a fee, Mister “we aren’t taxed enough” Dipshit.
Unbelievably stupid. I did notice how you ejected from the abortion thread once people started posting Democrat politicians advocating for death up to birth. Wrong on everything.

You forgot the death tax that's waiting for you and then there's.....inflation, that's another sneaky tax you pay when they print money.
The $100 bill is the new $20 if you haven't noticed.

No shit, Einstein. There are a lot of different taxes.
And your calculations? No one seems to be up to the task and it ain't that hard.

 

[RaceBannon]

50 percent

Pretty clear on that

 

[HHusky]

50 percent

You'd have to be earning essentially nothing for that to be possible. If your marginal rate of taxation is 50%, then you're making buckets of money (and you need to do some tax planning). But your effective tax rate isn't anywhere near 50%.

 

[RaceBannon]

Shut up

Get a big check in Kali and it will be over 50%.

Yes. Again, the marginal rate will be over 50%.
Did anyone here go to college?
