A single person with no deductions except standard and himself as a dependant who makes $350,000 in gross income pays $99,300 in income tax or 28.4% despite being in the so called "35%" backet. He would also pay $5075 in medicare taxes and $6324 in SS taxes. For a total of $239,000 in take home pay. Of course those that are married and/or have children and other deductions would pay even LESS in taxes. So yes I could very EASILY very comfortably ANYWHERE in the US on $239,000 a year if I was single and had no kids. As I said married couple with 2 kids would have even MORE take home pay ( at minimum $255,000 ) so they too could live very comfortably.

guess what IDIOT? if you keep demanding more from those in that 35% tax bracket, they will find a way to circumvent the tax mans wrath and the "revenue" we depend on to fund all those socialized programs you champion will need to be collected from someone. guess who that'll be? face it, the government has gone from a group of elected officials put in place to represent the BEST INTERESTS of the masses to a cartel who practice mob tactics with no accountability and a never ending thirst for spending money. GUESS WHAT IDIOT? there are many out there who make LESS than you so why arent they justified in asking YOU to give THEM MORE of what you have? we should all be even right? commy. thats just something you cant seem to comprehend. you have no problem demanding those who make what you consider to be an obscene amount to pay MORE when you yourself would cry a fucking river if the government imposed that percent on your income. what about the all the 22 year old single mothers with 4 kids and no job? your AGI is obscene to them. its all relative IDIOT. like i said in the other thread, lets all give the government 100% and let them decide what we get back. at least that way we'd all be "equal" and we'll get a real chance to see who would work hard and who would hardly work when both pay the same. im sure this country would survive that test.
