Uncleanly Cleric posted:It matches my napkin math for my son. So either you and I have missed something or... This is the site I was using and, provided it is correct that the standard deduction for a married couple will be $24k and children are $2k each, then the median American family with two children do not pay federal taxes I'm trying to make sense of this and I can't get round it, this is absurd. No wonder it costs a trillion dollars if the only people you tax are single, childless and poor bonus; this is one hell of a penalty for having more than two kids. Quick check of a 2015 pew article says that includes 51% hispanic families, 40% black families, 34% white families, unless tax credits count to a rebate? I'm not sure Single black woman with no kids earns $30k a year less than our median married white family and pays $1400 more in federal taxes how do you make a loving tax bill this racist and WASPy, my brain is melting any excuse to post The Absolute Boy on loving up rich people and tax cuts https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ImmRBkoLi4 Spangly A fucked around with this message at 18:18 on Dec 19, 2017 |

evilweasel posted:yeah whatever this hypothetical family is doing it's utter nonsense Amusingly I'm pretty sure that the example tracks very closely to the setup my parents have. Mother works full time in education while my father has income from several business sources. But from what they've told me their effective rate is much, much lower because agriculture and consulting are both very easy to structure to keep "income" down in any particular year, and his work involves both. It is apparently ok somehow as they've been audited before with no issue. In any sane system they would pay a whole bunch more.

The thing isn't so much that he looks away from Obama (which he does) its that he spends the entire roll call distracted and disinterested like a child. Which means either someone was really bad at choreographing that robot or someone really, really captured the essence of Trump.

He's certainly is being played by Putin, but he is also the current vice president to fox & friends' paymasters' control over federal decisions. A (and I cannot stress this enough) simple channel. I guess that makes Mike Pence High Deacon. e- That is depressing, so here is a seadog.

Trick Trump? No way. He willingly gave Lavrov the info of the Israeli asset within ISIS that was used to electronically track communications. It was like he bragged about having the information and the Russians just sat back in the Oval Office and let him talk.

Tuxedo Gin posted:It's not actually a tax cut. If it were a tax cut it would probably be massively popular because people are stupid and would rather have a few hundred bucks in their pockets than social services and infrastructure. No, I don't think that's it. In the past, Republicans have successfully marketed tax cuts to idiots that don't benefit from them. Here's my madman theory as to why this one's so unpopular: 1) A woke media. Trump shits on them as often as possible; they're reciprocating by actually reporting the truth about this bill rather than the happy lies they repeated during the Bush era. 2) Trump and Congress are hilariously unpopular. People trusted Reagan and Bush (to their detriment), but Trump doesn't have the public's affection or trust. He's poisonous to everything he touches, and Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan are already perceived by both sides to have sold their constituents up the river. 3) The failure of the Obamacare repeal (yes, I realize that the individual mandate is getting repealed, but they were not able to pass any of the three bills that came before the Senate that specifically dealt with Obamacare). We saw firsthand how the sausages get made when spastic toddlers were at the controls and went "Eeeewwwww." Naturally, that's made people more skeptical about the process this time around.
