[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Per TurboTax:
AGI = $132k
ETR:  9.49%[/quote]

[quote=Anonymous]HHI: 151
ETR: 9.5[/quote]

[quote=Anonymous]HHI : 164
ETR : 10.3[/quote]

WTF. This is part of the problem with our tax system. People making over $100k should NOT be paying 10% or less in taxes. I make $35k and my tax rate was something like 22%. Total BS.[/quote]

Try buying a place.  It helps.[/quote]

[b]How the f*** do you think I can afford to save a down payment for a house making $35k a year?[/b] I'm stuck throwing away rent every month because I don't have any extra $ each month after my 20% TAX RATE. Seriously this is ridiculous and what is really f***ed up with America.

Also to the PP who suggested I make charitable contributions: I take home $26k a year after taxes and you think I'm about to contribute more than $6,500 (or whatever the standard deduction is, can't remember exactly) in order to itemize and pay less taxes? I want some of what you're smoking. [/quote]

Seriously.  It'd be nice if those with higher HHIs would think before they type.[/quote]

They were being candid.  It wxplained why they have low ETRs.   Angry poster should quit McDonalds and get a real job.[/quote]

No way a full-time worker at McDonald's is making $35k a year. At (generously) $9 an hour, they'd be making $18.7k a year BEFORE taxes if they work 40 hour workweeks and don't take ANY vacation time.[/quote]

Manager maybe?[/quote]
