Took a good look at my paycheck today…

Gross YTD Amount: 16,215.57

Net Pay YTD: 11,788.97

WTF? I’m paying out fucking 27.3% in taxes and insurances??? (My insurances total YTD are only $157.78… the rest is taxes!!)

:mad:

you think that’s a lot?

add in all the sales tax you pay (6-7%), property taxes/school taxes if you own a house (a couple thousand annually), all the taxes and regulatory fees on your cell phone (ten bucks a month?), estate taxes, toll road fees, municipality taxes, et cetera…

i know this is going to sound odd coming from a liberal, but we need someone to go in and kill all the excess spending on ridiculous projects/services… so we CAN implement more needed “socialist” programs and still cut taxes.

try commission. as soon as you get a big paycheck they hit you with the higher tax bracket… and then don’t reduce it if you have a small paycheck. $100 is taxed like $10,000. i always get refunds, but i’d rather have the $ ☹
