    The poor isn't where any large percentage of our tax dollars go.
    Who said it was?

    Is the idea of giving money not extorted from you by the government for corrupt purposes that foreign to you?

    Write a fucking check
    So you can finally purchase health insurance? To whom should the check be sent?

    Yeah it's "stupid" because it exposes you for the hypocrites and frauds you are. You can have exactly what you want right now. There is nothing stopping you and every other person who wants to pay more in taxes from writing a check to the government right now. I on the other hand, want lower taxes and if I decide on my own to start paying less in taxes I'll have the power of the state come down on my head and force me to pay my taxes, there's nothing I can do about it.


    You want higher taxes? Start paying them now O'Keefed. You can have exactly what you want today, but you won't do it because you're a fraud. You don't want to pay higher taxes, you want other people to pay higher taxes.
    blob, I already pay higher taxes than you do and I'll bet I give away more too. I am proposing to pay even more than I already do in taxes; you can pay a little more too. That's how a society works.
    You can donate more and not try and force everyone else to pay more. Just pit some big numbers in the donation box on the tax form. Or they have to force you to give?
    Private charity isn't a substitute for paying for your demands on us, Mall Cop.
    I make no demands and you pay none of my retirement. HTH
    I'm sure you'll be turning your entitlements away.

    Democrats lost another vote when my wife saw that Cali is going to institute a tax if you don't have insurance and give free insurance to illegals

    No wonder you've filled death row. You keep making comments that have nothing to do with the issue

    Fact is you're claiming unless the government exports 70% or more if income at gunpoint you can't help the poor

    I helpfully suggested that you write a fucking check and leave the rest of us alone to do likewise if we choose

    Oh and how do you figure that?

    37% federal, 13% state, 1.45% Medicare , 1% disability, 6.2% social security.

    58.65%

    That's fucking Kalifornia and the feds.
    Now I know you just completely made that story up. You just outed yourself dumbfuck.

    To be in the 37% tax bracket, your income has to be over $400k. And social security ends under $130k.

    But remember, sledog is not known as a liar.
    Bonuses are not taxed at the same rate as your adjusted gross is. I don't know shit about taxes (hi @CirrhosisDawg) but I do know this. Whether his numbers are straight, I have no idea?

    But what we all do know is that you are full of shit.

    Really only a divorce lawyer would jump to that conclusion and think that it is a logical thought process with the information given.

    Bonuses are eligible for a lower rate of withholding. They ultimately are taxed at your actual marginal tax rate. No special treatment.

    Your struggle is real today. If someone receives a bonus, it means that they are a probably a W2 and not a 1099. In this instance, the taxes were deducted from the bonus, so that should be our first clue that it wasn't a 1099 or a sole or a LLC who received the bonus.

    And believe it or not, people who work for the Man get behind on child support also.

    I understood the guy receiving the bonus was an employee. You missed my point.

    Oh and how do you figure that?

    37% federal, 13% state, 1.45% Medicare , 1% disability, 6.2% social security.

    58.65%

    That's fucking Kalifornia and the feds.
    Now I know you just completely made that story up. You just outed yourself dumbfuck.

    To be in the 37% tax bracket, your income has to be over $400k. And social security ends under $130k.

    But remember, sledog is not known as a liar.
    Jesus, if you really are an accountant you've gotta be the worst fucking one that I've ever talked to. I already gave you a very reasonable and easy explanation. Yes, withholding can be higher than the effective rate on bonuses for a variety of reasons. I've had it happen, was pissed, and had to go get an explanation of why it happened.

    Also, are we really arguing over if something along 49% vs. 58% makes it too much? Both are too fucking much. Fucking Christ, the colonists revolted over less than 5% of their income going to taxes.
    Sledog said 6.2% social security which is impossible. He made the shit up.

    Well I'd say if you don't want to pay 49% don't live in California. That's 10-13% top rate or whatever. Fuck that. In Washington, it would be about 40%. Unless the income is derived from capital gains. Then it's 20%.

    Seriously. The person that gets screwed for taxes in this country is the person making $200k to $500k a year from a wage.
    Really what are the rates know it all? Everything I said is true. I'm not a lying turd like you.

    I could provide proof but you'll have to pay if I do. Say $1000.00? More?
