Man having a hard time understanding how earning over $200,000 a year is too much to qualify for a decent stimulus check

Some of the biggest welfare recipients are millionaires under the excuse of providing "jobs". Does not matter if the business is mostly automated or has zero workers.

They take that free money for themselves.

I agree seeing as 50% goes to taxes & you must have worked darn hard and long hours, you deserve a reward!

I think it will be 75-95k joint cut-off.

Too some hight he has a point though.

The person is wrong.
Taxes are socialized in this country.
They include taxes in the products and services they sell.

So a person earning $20,000 a year will see most of that money gone in paying taxes.

The slumlord he pays his rent to includes taxes in the cost of the rent.

The food and widgets he buys have the federal taxes of the producer included in the product.

If you are a wage earner, you should be paying 0 taxes because you are already paying everyone elses taxes and cannot pass it on to the next sucker.

You pulled that out of your ass.

"So a person earning $20,000 a year will see most of that money gone in paying taxes.

Really? How much taxes does a person pay on products they buy?

How much tax is he paying on that rent?

Where I live taxes on purchases are from 0 - 13%.

So 13% = most?

You weirdos can't stop lying.

The rich really have it made in this country.
They write off taxes to some "charity" they have connections with. They increase the cost of their widgets when taxs increase.

He's right. $200,000 should not be the cut-off.

Oh you should see the scams the military uses to maximize pay and benefits for the officers . I've seen the officers Entitlement Corps (aka marines) on numerous occasions take benefits away from an entire unit of enlisted just to divert that funding to doubling up on officer entitlements.
I could go on and on and on with specific documented cases.

You are talking about the additional state and local taxes on top of socialized taxes.

As a business owner, lets say I owe an additional 1 million in taxes at the end of the year.

Im going to raise prices on the widgets I sell in order to pay for that and keep my 10% profit margin.

So a wage earner that buys that widget is paying his taxes.
The wage earner sees the increase cost but cannot have other people pay for it.

Leona Helmsley - Taxes are for the little people.

What ever happened to "no taxation without representation." Seems to me like this person is not be represented fairly or equally.

Join the crowd.
Most are not represented in this country, only the deep pockets.

Amazon paid a 1.2% tax rate on $13,285,000,000 in profit for 2019. Last year, Yahoo Finance reported that Amazon (AMZN) paid a shockingly low amount in federal income taxes in 2018 on more than $11 billion in profits: $0

Sounds like that spoiled cocksucker needs to experience what it's like to make waaaaaaaaay less

I know I'm going to be stating the obvious, but we need tax reform in this country....hell, the whole political system needs to be reformed.

The whole world of people needs reformation...

A person's income is only 1/2 the equation, and maybe less, because your behavior dictates whether you can build wealth or if you spend everything (and more) than you make...

BTW

2nd quarter just ended and statements are coming in...looks good! We've recovered and are up into profit territory!

Diversification works!

I can understand the frustration. The gov sucks 150k plus out of my ass every year and then distributes it to a bunch of low life non working welfare trash. Socialism at its best. Of course I want my share of the pie given back.

It is easy to understand the man if you are not a broke dick dumb cocksucker!

There is a lot of deadbeat millionaires passing the costs to everyone else.

Look at Capital Gains taxes.
You can put in a few million dollars and sit back and earn money taxed at almost nothing.
That is what you call a deadbeat.

Agree 100%. My wife and I have a combined income that disqualified us from the stimulus checks, but we fucking pay 25% in income tax plus all that bullshit SS and FICA crap. Where's OUR stimulus money?

I have doctor/dentist friends who make over 250k/ year, yet they are broke and in debt by over two million bucks...and they have to pay a small staff...

Just do like the wealthy do and spend other peoples money, not yours.

Trump said he is a big fan of other peoples money.

A consumption tax is the only fair way to tax, because it allows the people to choose how much they pay by how much they consume...

Good argument considering the billionaires who got money, ALOT OF MONEY

This right here!

You have to appreciate a man who is not a knee jerk reactivist who thinks the rich spoiled man need to be poor to learn a lesson. To bad the majority of this board are cry baby karens who will remain broke till the end of days and the rich man is all to blame.

Sounds like you're not very smart with filing. You're obviously employees and not employers so you get what you get, crybaby bitch

You're jealous of a thousand dollars. Sounds like you're the pauper.
