    Of all the things that have changed since Reagan took office, it’s nice to see that ‘fiscal responsibilty’ still means massive unfunded tax cuts for the people who need them the very least.

    I’m disabled and make less than $20k a year in SSDI. What’s in it for me? Oh and fuck Trump regardless.

    IMO, it should incorporate a logarithmic target at homelessness in the entire nation. Those in the top brackets have no right to obscene wealth while anyone is lying in a gutter or going hungry.

      Honestly they’re hoping you only look at the bottom big numbers and ignore your actual insurance bracket.

    Wtf? Why am I benefiting most under Harris? Shouldn’t that be the guys on the very bottom?

    I mean, I’ll take it, but…weird?

    (also fuck Trump, he can eat dirty diapers)

      It was a struggle between the middle class and the upper class. The upper class, once again, tricked the lower class into supporting them. The middle class has lost, and now its power will be dismantled as much as possible. The lower class, as usual, will not benefit much from either scenario. This is why their vote was easy to sway. They really didn’t have a horse in the race, but now the gap widens. I hate typing this out and it makes me feel gross, but this is what’s happening.

    What a terrible graph. You don’t know if the numbers are good or bad at a passing glance.

      The heritage foundation has a plan. Why come up with your own when someone has already done the work for you?

    According to this, those making 100k (33.6% of Americans) will be getting less money. The 66.4% of Americans will be getting significantly more.

      As a programmer and my wife is a doctor, I’m in the upper brackets. But I don’t care. Also happy to see the millionaires losing even more money!

      In my eyes, $3000 goes a long way for someone struggling!
