Sorry, I just wanted to sound like Bones there for a second.

All I’m trying to illustrate is that they payroll tax cut ONLY helps you if you have an actual job.

For people like me whose whole company got nuked on April 1st, it doesn’t mean anything to me. So, yeah, I’m pretty bitter. My wife went from making $1000 a week to $100 a week, as well. Her job gave her 9 hours last week.

So, while there may be people out there that might benefit from this, unfortunately it’s kinda stressful when you gotsta come up with bill money and combined, my family worked 9 hours last week.

This is no joke. For me, it’s an emergency. So, yeah, I’m not out looking at waterfront bungalows, or picking daisies, or whatever the people who didn’t have their lives totally disrupted by COVIDgate.

And I build accounting interfaces that put together automated P&L’s. I’m well aware about EXACTLY what payroll tax is, what it does, and also how much it breaks down as a percentage of gross. Wanna talk about Controllable G&A or ask about Advanced Principles of Depreciation percentage? I’m all ears.

Love,

to the poster ...i have no problem with a bill designed to give some
relief to people with jobs. and it’s cut off at i come of 104k. so the wealthy aren’t benefiting.

i also have no problem, none whatsoever, with paying higher taxes to help people
like you. that was the problem with the last stimulus, it went to people
who weren’t impacted by this at all.

if you know that much, you shouldn’t be saying “there
might be some people
who benefit.”. tons of people will
benefit.

good luck, seriously and sincerely.
