Jesus Fucking CHRIST I lose 34% of my salary to taxes/poor people/etc

[ittech]

10% for services is reasonable, 34% is usurious

cliffs on what you do

Realistically, our tax code is intended for relatively high earners to be homeowners. Single 6 figure earners who rent get screwed. We overincentivize debt.

15% of federal income taxes (incl. FICA) went to pay the interest on the national debt in 2008

[doboi]

making more money is so bittersweet. even when you make more than you used to, with taxes it feels like you're barely doing any better

 

[limsoup]

you see a society that's a lot better than the alternative.

last time the position got canceled due to the fact some worthless black guy filled it. by the time we fired him, we realized we didnt need that position

this new position will be at least 6 months.

 

[l33tpilot]

[Gromer]

It's most likely the federal bracket he's in.
