>I feel that my tax plan is immeasurably better than the current one we already have. Is our government really that incapable of making a somewhat reasonable tax plan. If some dude on the internet can make a better tax plan than the one we currently have is our country fucked. Or is my tax plan not that good, and the one we currently have is better.

Your plan is moronic, as a person who makes $90,000 will end up being able to keep LESS money than the person who only made $89,999. Making that single extra dollar brings up his tax rate by 6%, causing him to lose $5,400.

the cut off has to come somewhere on top of that taxes are all around lower if u make under 120K

Well youre retarded as you dont know how taxes work. They are tiered u twat. Only income made above 90k is at that rate. Fucking goonie

There doesn't have to be a cut.

Your representation of the current federal tax plan doesn't explain WHY all that "blank plus blank of the amount over blank" is there.

You could easily improve your proposal by implementing the same thing.

Let's take your current numbers without modification. All taxpayers would enjoy 0% taxation on their first $5K. Any income PAST 5K would be taxed at 3%. Any income made PAST 15K would be taxed at 6%. Etc.

The seemingly random numbers found in the current plan are the result of figuring out the effective dollar amount of the taxation at each of the previous brackets.

I know exactly how they work. The OP doesn't.

Please see my post for my explanation to the OP about this exactly.

observe the taxes under FDR
then you'll see how our current tax plan is ridiculously terrible

...

I'm not arguing that the numbers aren't terrible. I'm arguing that the lack of tiering is terrible. We could easily implement your numbers AND tiering. Hell, they should probably be even higher.

I make 90k, but have wife and kids. So get some credit. I wish there were more tax cuts for middle class instead of phasing out credits and deductions. I am a democrat so I am fine with it.

Taxation is theft.

how so

And completely necessary to provide essential infrastructure. Oh well.

...

Too bad. You want a civilized society? Deal with theft or go live in a shithole.

so utterly pathetic.

why in the fuck are you taking money from anyone who makes

no shit. there should be 0 income tax, so any time it increases it IS socialism.

15K often indicates that you started a full/part time job at the end or middle of the year

No, you're just retarded.

...

So for half a year they had no income at all. So why are you taking money from that person?

Social security tax is the biggest tax break of n the rich

Test

you can't take 1/2 someones fucking income you commie POS.

could some kind user explain to me why they use tax brackets? Whats wrong with a flat tax?

yes less money than the total amount that would have been taken otherwise as a form of registry

if your gripe is with taking money from those who don't have enough money to always give out that is what social programs are for

Better take away all those public facilities. schools, parks, roads, road signs, police, court and various programs that end up helping you out one day. then. But muh socialism, right?

flat tax will often hurt the poor and benefit the rich
say there's a high flat tax at 50% the rich will be able to pay it in still have loads of money but a poor man will lose half of what little he has

say the flat tax is low at 5% both the rich man and the poor man will just put dropps in the bucket and the country will go bankrupt

You are a fucking progressive cunt.

EVERYBODY should pay the same, at about 12.5%.

No loopholes, no nothing.

And by "everybody", I mean everybody, especially them filthy niggers who make less than $16,000 a year, pay NO taxes, and then get $4,000 back, plus $1,500 for every niglet running around the house....not to mention the $65,000 in welfare and services they receive while being "poor".

So, am I doing this right?
OLD taxes with $42K year income you would pay $6271.25 TOTAL?
NEW taxes with $42K year income you would pay $5040 TOTAL?

A flat tax affects lower income households more than higher income households. A bracketed tax system ideally has everyone feeling roughly the same affect on their lives from taxation.

a flat tax is just not profitable for a nation you have to think realistically when it comes to economy

lol. ok. you realize that this country didn't have an income tax 1913? We shouldn't have a federal income tax.

You are a communist faggot.

Successful people should pay a LOWER percentage in tax than shit stains, street rats and niggers. It's an incentive to be successful.

>implying the rich won't manage to find loopholes and get out of paying even that little.

nobody should pay the federal government their income directly. the federal government should be getting their money from the state governments. This money should be raised by property taxes. Land owners should be the only ones paying taxes, and they should be the only ones with a vote.

So what happens when a small group of people buy all the land?

This guy has it. A flat tax across the board. I made 33k last year and will probably this year. I'd be fine paying a flat tax. Especially knowing rich kikes couldn't use stupid loop holes to pay the least amount of their shekels.

Let me put you out with $0 to your name and see if you become 'successful' in any realistic amount of time. In fact, if you're on Sup Forums, you aren't successful by any stretch of the imagination. Then you, too, will be a shitstain. This is evidently more about your irrational hatred for the false generalizations you impose on entire groups than it is about taxation.

>So what happens when a small group of people buy all the land?
that's already happened, big boi. no difference

I would simply choose to be successful. Really don't understand why poor people choose to be lazy and poor.

20%

No deductions

>choose to be successful

>understand why poor people choose to be lazy and poor.
no shit. i'm not even a smart man and I was able to put myself through night school and now I have a decent job that affords me a small mortgage. It really comes down to courage and motivation; there are so many pussy niggers that can't simply talk to another human being.

Well you didn't really post a solution. Just a shit meme.

...

"I'm sitting around ALL DAY, and nobody has offered me a $100K/year job yet. Pfff the successful are so LUCKY!"

SAGE this thread. Google how to. You will see this garbage less if you do.
Also, you can click the little triangle to hide it.

>Well you didn't really post a solution.
u posited a retarded scenario. the rich already own everything, so it's like asking what would happen then if the birds stopped migrating.

Wait, why did you do night school? Couldn't you have just chosen to be successful without that?

If we didn't spend a mad amount of billions of dollars on military we could use that money to improve our infrastructure but too bad we're loaded with Jews and barbaric money hungering fat cats so we gotta buy 50 extra tanks to protect "the freedums"
Everything's fuckin batshit stupid
Fuck you

Deductions are important for self employed people who have to pay for their own bullshit like health care and office space.

Exactly! My dad made me work hard and get a paper route before he let me take over his company.

>the rich already own everything

no they don't, but you still failed to answer the question.

anybody check my math? the so called "flat tax" is confusing... do I still pay a smaller percentage on money in the lower bracket, or do I just pay whatever the brackets rate is?
>So if I am 1 dollar into the next bracket do I pay extra on just that 1 dollar or do I now have to pay extra on ALL because I am in a new bracket?

Wrong. There's a reason why people making even $40k-$60k per year (middle class) never go higher, and it's not laziness. Given absolutely nothing, and having to rely on plunging into debt just to get by, you don't have the same opportunities, so cut the pretentious bullshit.

Your plan needs to have the same caveats of "the amount over x"

Otherwise it's a disincentive for people to make more money if they are right at a new tax bracket.

>Couldn't you have just chosen to be successful without that?
that's what choosing success means, nigger.
>fucking summer in here.

>no they don't
so ur delusional. ur argument doesn't hold water and ur response is "nuh uh"
>go back to summer school.

That's not what my dad told me and he used to own my whole company so I think you're wrong

property tax is the stupidest though because then you get into arguments about which property is worth more and how you can have 2 identical parcel of land but the one 1 block closer to a school is somehow worth more

That is not a flat tax. A flat tax has no brackets. Everyone pays the same percentage of their entire income, no matter what.

>Exactly! My dad made me work hard and get a paper route before he let me take over his company
so because you may never own a company you shouldn't even try to succeed?
>If I can't fuck a super model, then fuck trying to date.
ur a NEET. that makes sense.

Serious, Also tired of everyone including Social Security and Medicare in the Gov spending charts
>that shit is directly paid for from our paychecks, if you want to cut spending on those programs then give us our fucking money back

You can own one, you just have to choose to do so. It's that simple

Why not just adopt fairtax and be done with it

>property tax is the stupidest though
not really. it already happens, and having public money tied to taxes from real estate means those people who have real, physical skin in this country control where the country goes.
>this prevents the lazy, ignorant niggers, spics, crackers from destroying the country.

Let's be real here, I'm guessing at most 10% of the people posting here pay any form of income taxes at all. The rest are unemployed or underage.

>That is not a flat tax.
no shit, faggot. im using it as a loose term. jesus christ, you completely ignore the question to complain that you don't understand english/ Cuckchan is such a shitshow now.

Bonafide good idea

>oversimplifying this much
This is why you yourself will never be successful. The best of the best (warren buffet, bill gates, etc) understand it's a difficult road filled with intricacies, failures, and a dash of luck. Countless books have been written on the subject, and it is clear you've not read a single one, and I'd sooner trust their advice than some pretentious faggot on Sup Forums.

>you just have to choose to do so
yes. exactly. I can start a company right now. It's that fucking easy. Now try and figure out what your fucking company does, and start selling it.
>ur just lazy and making excuses for yourself so you don't have to try. No longer replying to ur bullshit, nigger.

>fairtax

>how to massively increase the size of the black market

You buy black market goods, you don't get the protection of regulation.

>Countless books have been written on the subject
There are so many books about it, so that is my argument. lol.
there is always risk of failure and harship. jesus you are a pussy. "It's hard, so fuck trying." "I might fail, so fuck trying."
>stop fucking making excuses.
>Who the fuck cares about Warren Buffet, Bill Gates Etc? They are the exceptional. You don't need to be exceptional, you just need to be financially sound.
>BUT IF IM NOT SUPER RICH WHAT"S THE POINT OF TRYING!!!!?!?!?1

>protection of regulation

Why wouldn't the goods be regulated in another economy that doesn't have a 25% income tax, and then smuggled into the US?

Sales tax* sorry

Oh yes now with the regulations gone I can sell you my disease meat and since I own all the meat stores that will be the only meat you will be able to buy I will also raise the price and lower the quality because I love money so much

The main problem with your retarded argument is you suggest everyone who goes out will succeed, just because they 'choose to be successful'. The poor and many in the middle class are not even financially sound to so much as give it a shot, fuckwit. You think it's so easy and simple, when it's far more difficult than you could ever conceive in the debt economy, with people working several jobs with no time for themselves. The slightest fuck up will ruin someone who only has a hundred dollars a month to spare after bills and debt, and there's no saving you from your stupidity if you can't see that. Very few people will make it, that's a demonstrable fact throughout ALL eras and ages. That's reality.

please give me heart line numbers that you consider successful

>How to repair the middle class.

My Proposed Federal Income Tax Rate

$0 - $100k | 0%
$100k - $500k | 10% of the amount over $100k
$500k and up | $40k plus 20% of the amount over $500k

>How to repair the middle class.
vote democrat

>who goes out will succeed,
omg. if you try u will succeed. there is enough for everyone if everyone works and tries, but most people want to sit around whining that they can't be a millionaire so why bother learning a skill.
>"I don't think it's possible for everyone to succeed, therefore I won't try at all."
100% guaranteed to fail. ur perspective on life is why you will never own a home or be financially stable. get over yourself and get a fucking job.

That may be the most retarded image I've seen today. Thanks!

>please give me heart line numbers that you consider successful
single is, let's say $35K/year. Family of 4 around $60K/year.
>Sorry you can't afford new iPhones and a new card payment. sorry you have to have store brand food and go to Good Will. Sorry you can't afford to spend millions if you get cancer.

kek! good one.
>don't blame me I voted for the other guy.

People have tried their hardest and failed in droves, and do every single day. You should not be pushing people who are not financially stable to take a risk similar to winning the lottery, when statistically they will end up bankrupt. No one is saying not to try at all you absolute fucking cretin, people just shouldn't be throwing everything they already have away for a chance when they can't afford it yet. And I have a job, so nice assumptions, retard.

>people are either succeeding or sitting around whining
False dichotomy. Don't know whether you're intelligent enough to understand the implications of that.

u have no argument
>enjoy a trap

>People have tried their hardest and failed in droves, and do every single day.
then you gotta keep trying. Also, people that fail fail for a reason. It's not just 'bad luck'. Some fag invoked Buffet and Gates, well if they gave up because they failed a few times they would just be niggers. You have to try, and if you fail tough shit buddy. It's not the guy down the street's problem, and he shouldn't have to pay for your failures; he has his own problems.

JUST BECAUSE YOU ARE FAILURE DOESN"T MEAN YOU CAN ROB OTHERS OF THEIR MONEY.

It means your logic is flawed, for the record.

>The truth hurts my butt

even fatboy donnie knows it's true

>JUST BECAUSE YOU ARE FAILURE DOESN"T MEAN YOU CAN ROB OTHERS OF THEIR MONEY.

This is where you go full retard. Anyone who doesn't fit your irrational criteria of success is somehow robbing others of their money, when in fact I work for every dime I own. Kys.

Obligatory post.

>deficit spending like there's no tomorrow
>well I'll be darned, the stock market is going up and new jobs are being created

I guess those $19,954,163,000,000.00 and counting don't really matter, eh?

>captcha includes the word STOP
How fitting

>implying most of the imbeciles ITT will recognize even one of those examples they themselves indulge

>Being this retarded

Medicare being the main issue anyway just kill the elderly and hope it rids the economy of boomers.

>push someone not in a stable place to bankruptcy
>cry when they have to rely on government programs that already exist just to recover from your short-sighted advice
sure is retarded in here.
