Again. That is just income tax you fucking idiot. When you count all federal taxes.... It evens out.
You are worse than arguing with my wife.
I lost track what you all arguing about. But I love how Hondo just tosses that in. “Oh look some other segment is getting fleeced, that makes it better.” FYFMFE
With the tax-filing deadline just days away, California residents are worried that a slew of proposed levies on everything from soft drinks to water to tires and car batteries could soon see even more money going out of their pockets in the state that already has the nation's highest income tax.
As Californians grapple with that 13.3 percent income tax – and some leaner-than-usual refunds this year due to the recent federal tax overhaul – lawmakers in Sacramento are looking at a range of other revenue sources. Members of the legislature's Democratic supermajority argue that these new taxes are vital to shore up the state coffers and to provide crucial services such as repairing crumbling infrastructure, cleaning up toxic wells and fighting obesity.
Overall, the California Tax Foundation has added up more than $6.2 billion worth of tax increase proposals pending in the state legislature, with that number expected to rise as bills are amended.
“We have the highest gas tax in the nation and the majority party has gone as far as taxing our air,” California State Senate Republican Leader Shannon Grove said in a statement to Fox News. “Now, they are proposing to tax our water, soda, tires, and more. Higher taxes won’t solve California’s affordability and housing problems, and they will only make things worse.”
A spokesperson for the California Democratic Party declined to comment to Fox News, instead directing questions to lawmakers who proposed the pieces of legislation.
One of the most controversial proposals to come out of Sacramento this year is a proposal from Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom to tax drinking water in order to clean up contaminated water in the state’s low-income and rural areas.
It's a fucking tax table, not an article. Scroll down to the end and you'll see that $100,000 taxable income is taxed at 6.5% if you're single or married filing separately, and 4% if you're married filing jointly.
Facts don't care about your feelings
The article doesn't say at what income level people are paying that 13.3% and your tax table conveniently stops at $100K in income.
Its 12.3 according to the state website
Had I been asking about 100K in income @BearsWiin had it fucking nailed
$100k in taxable income. AGI will be much higher if taxable income is $100k.
I'm guessing that upwards of 90% of the CA population reports less then $100k taxable income. So upwards of 90% aren't paying anywhere near the 13.3% that your article referenced. And your own link shows that taxable income has to be $572k for single or married filing separately, or $1.146M for married filing jointly, in order to kick in the 12.3% rate. That might be several thousand households, out of a population of nearly 40 million.
Californians are not "grappling" with a 13.3% tax rate. Very few are even "grappling" with a 12.3% tax rate.
Dig deeper into your numbers. It's more like tens, if not hundreds of thousands pay the 12.3% rate. Moreover, CA assesses a 1% surcharge on top of that rate for earners making more than $1 million. The mean for the top 2,000,000 earners in CA is something like $450,000. In SF it's more like $650,000. That's the average. The numbers can be found here.

Again you're a pathological lying piece of shit who just moves the goal posts when your line of bullshit blows up in your face.
I've always been talking about income taxes Hondo, and your earlier response where you lied your ass off yet again you said:
The top 1% pay federal taxes pretty close to the amount of income they earn.
So again, you're a fucking liar Hondo.
The top 1% to top 50% pay a greater share of the of total income tax than they earn income. You lied Kunt.
Haha. I said federal taxes. And posted a link. You can't even keep your shit straight. You are awesome Bob. Never change.
Yeah, you posted a "link" that didn't refute a fucking word I said. Top 1% pay nearly 40% of all income taxes. And contrary to your lie the top 1% actually pay a greater share of their income in Federal Taxes than middle and lower income people.

Yes they pay a greater share, by a few percent. Not double like you are portraying. Lil lyin Bob.
