Anyone check the fake inflation today?

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're making blob look like a fucking genius. At least he could concede the obvious: you'd have to cut entitlements to balance the budget.
Personally, I'd be fine with entitlements cuts, but I know full well that you can't deliver the votes to do that so I'm not going to pretend it's even a possibility.
We can raise taxes now or we'll have to raise them a lot higher later.
-
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?
-
You'll support him because you will be told to. You going to vote for Trump?
Dishonest to your core
-
I don’t have any entitlements.
Social security will be insolvent by the time I’m eligible in 25 years.
I’m just paying for your entitlements if we’re being honest.
-
No. I won't vote for Trump ever.
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?
-
Chatch
Thank you for your service
If only ss were changed so youngsters could pay into a pension that the government can't loot
-
No, it won't. And I'm still only paying in, not drawing SS yet.
I'm on Medicare and I'm paying at the highest possible premium. Less expensive monthly payment than before I was on Medicare, but definitely not cheap.
-
80%? You're getting hysterical, ma'am.
The highest marginal rate of federal taxation now is 37%—and your effective rate is far lower.
-
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
-
"We pay 50 percent in taxes"
If you are, you're doing things spectacularly wrong.
(I don't believe you.)
-
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…
-
There's a lot of fucking taxes
Adults and honest people know that
You don't
-
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?
-
That’s not what he posted, you fucking idiot.
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.
-
You gals will do anything to avoid running the actual numbers.
-
White flag
-
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.
-
50 percent
Pretty clear on that
-
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%.
-
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?
-
Again we're talking all taxes
Again, stupid or obtuse?
