- georgemcbay 9mo ago> Please forward your next raise to me, since it will only raise your taxes. Joking aside that's not really how taxes work (in the USA anyway). A raise might move you into a higher top marginal tax rate, but only the money you earn above that new bracket threshold gets taxed at the higher rate, everything below the threshold continues to get taxed at the same rate as before. Raises don't increase your taxes (though you might end up with a slightly higher top tax rate solely on the new money you weren't making at all before).

- chowells 9mo agoBasically irrelevant to taxpayers. Their salaries or triple their salaries will add up to a difference of a couple dollars on the average tax bill. Doge didn't actually cut any of the big expenses. It was only intended to cut the effective things.
- jrm4 9mo agoMeh, false; the cost of the disruption will almost certainly be comparable, if not outweigh, the money paid.
