[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Married couples earning more than $150k should be paying 45% or 50% on all income above $150k. Obviously, the brackets would be adjusted accordingly, but that's a rough idea where it should be. [/quote] Why? On what basis do you think it is acceptable to "confiscate" 50% of anyone's earnings?[/quote] DH and I both work normal jobs (engineer and program manager) and both make around 100k. I'd be pissed if someone took 50% of my income because DH and I were married. We would immediately divorce so we wouldn't have to pay 50% taxes. Completely unfair to married persons. [b]Frankly, the poor have figured this out that it doesn't pay to be married and that's the number one reason people aren't getting married in the lower class. [/b] Who would want to give away any subsidies they receive just for getting married? [/quote] You are a world-class idiot. [/quote]
