So, Trumbo, What Help You Giving to Me?

Payroll tax cut EO, really?

What part about that relief helps those of us who aren’t out looking for new waterfront bungalows?

do you know what payroll tax is, what he cut?

everyone who makes less than 104k a year, will get a big increase in take home pay. their take home pay will increase by 7.65% ( i think) of their gross pay.

how many people
making less than 104k a year, are looking for waterfront bungalows, do you think?

you only pay payroll taxes on approximately the first 135k of gross pay. meaning, anyone who has made more than 135k already this year, sees no benefit. isn’t that right?

unless i’m wrong, this can’t help the wealthy.

the poster said that a payroll tax cut only helps the wealthy. i pointed out how demonstrably wrong that is. i’m sorry that you can’t handle any and all facts which don’t serve liberalism.

guess what? a payroll tax cut doesn’t help me one cent. not one cent. i will not benefit one single penny, so it didn’t buy my vote.

i’m not even saying i agree with a payroll tax cut, as SS has enough problems with funding. what i’m saying, is that this cut, by definition, does nothing to help the wealthy. maybe business owners? if they no longer need to pay the 7.65% for their employees? but this cut does plenty to help average working joes.

everyone who makes less than 104k a year, is going to see a very nice bump on their paychecks. a very nice bump. 7.65% of your gross is a big deal.

did you complain about authoritarianism when obama
signed executive orders? or is it only problematic for you when republicans do it?

People may see nothing actually, it’s just a deferral and employers may withhold it because the taxes will eventually have to be paid. It’s a terrible order that almost nobody supported.

how would anyone see nothing, if they work
and make less than 104k a year?

teachers don’t pay into SS, i guess they won’t see anything. who else won’t?

The story is that he can’t make a deal and wants to go alone every time, he can’t effectively govern.
No surprise there

Gridlock is good. Woe to us if in the zeal to get rid of Trump we vote in a Progressive Congress and President. Progressives do not hesitate, when they have the power, as the hypocritical Repubs do and did, to enact Constitution busting, authoritarian, liberty constricting, rights eroding legislation that will enlarge the scope federal power and keep leadings us further and further into the unlimited government they desire.
