And with simple math, if that couple made 251,000 they would pay an extra $35 in tax. That's not even lunch at Disney.
That is what the hard sell spin doctors. "If you buy this insurance policy it will only cost you $4 a day! That is a coffee at Starbucks! $4 X 30 days = $120.00.
Now take that same 35% and add $250,000 and now you are talking $87,500 !!! We're not talking lunch at Disney anymore are we? !!!!
Basically for every $100,000 you earn you will give the inefficient BO government $35,000 to redistribute to people who vote for obama.
Disclaimer - To get the net change take the current rate from 40% (that is what obama wants to go to in a tax rate). That is your effective increase.
So the choice is do you want to keep that money for you and your family or would you rather just give it to your neighbor with no strings attached. Because that is what you do with your tax $$ when you give it to BO's government.
