i am begging my american followers to learn about tax brackets

[prolifeproliberty]

Especially how they disincentivize growth and upward mobility.

[orteil42]

you have not learned about tax brackets

[orteil42]

alright i got this reply so fast i think i need to address this explicitly. tax brackets do not mean you will make less than before when you get a raise! say your income is taxed at 20% but have a 30% tax bracket starting at $10k, this means all the money you make up to 10k is taxed at 20%! anything above that, minus 10k, is taxed at 30%. the $10k you made remains at 20%, unaffected by the higher tax bracket. if you made exactly $10k you’ll have $8k after taxes; if you made $11k that’s 10k at 20% and 1k at 30%, so $8700! you should never turn down a raise because of tax brackets!

it surprised me when i learned this! but it also surprised me that i didn’t already know it because it seems so obvious in retrospect! it’s almost as if…some people…profit from us not knowing it

Note: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez graduated Cum Laude from Boston University. 

[freelancer-stormscorpion]

Wasn’t she working as a bar tender before she got elected?

[sirfrogsworth]

Folks on the right always seem very concerned that AOC was a bartender. They ignore her prestigious education and the fact that she graduated with distinction. They ignore that she has relevant degrees. And they ignore that she worked for the nonprofit National Hispanic Institute gaining relevant experience in activism.

I’ve also noticed that conservatives constantly complain about “elites.” They propped up “Joe Six Pack” because they felt too many lawmakers were out of touch and they wanted people who understood the common folk. Blue collar workers are the heart and soul of America, right? 

Did you know that nearly half of congress is filled with lawyers? And the rest are mostly businessmen. What do lawyers know about my life? What do lawyers know about struggling to pay bills? What do lawyers know about what it’s like to hold a low wage job? How are they supposed to represent me and my needs?

Do you know why AOC worked as a bartender? Her father died and her mother’s jobs as a house cleaner and bus driver were not enough to fight foreclosure. So Alexandria put her career ambitions on hold and got a job as a bartender to help her mom. Conservatives are all about “family values” right? AOC valued her family so much that she worked a grueling job out of love for her mom. 

And you want to trivialize that?  

AOC knows my struggle more than Mitch McConnell and Donald Trump. I have confidence that AOC will represent me and my family’s needs more so than any lawyer or businessman who is just looking to enrich themselves. 

Maybe we need a few more bartenders and a few less lawyers.

Republicans: “Work hard and get a better job, snowflake” AOC: *works hard and gets a better job* Republicans: “N-No, not like that”

[mr-quiyst]

These are the same people who gave Representative Ocasio-Cortez shit for wearing a reasonably priced but professional outfit for her first day in Congress, saying that she “sure wasn’t acting like her bartender/common-person roots.” Like, was she supposed to wear a bartender’s apron?

People will go to any lengths to justify their mysogyny, racism, or both.

Besides, wasn’t Trump a multi-failure bankrupted businessman and failing reality show host before HE got elected?

Bitch, please.

With the virus spreading unchecked across much of the country, Thanksgiving gatherings could lead to Christmas funerals.

Every Thanksgiving I see people posting about how someone in their family said or did this or that upsetting thing. This year, you have a ready excuse to skip all of that drama. It’s a good time to stay home and have a very small holiday.

[maedaeme]

so today I drove past a traffic sign that said 'hey teens buckling up is totes yeet yo'

i wish i was joking but after we screamed a bit my brother attempted to get a picture as proof, failed, and ended up with this masterpiece that pretty much sums up the whole experience

LPT: Don't throw your junk mail away. Use it to to help the USPS instead!

Next time you get a credit card offer in the mail, or a junk piece of mail that includes a prepaid envelope or postcard, don't throw it away! Send the envelope back with a blank sheet of paper inside, or don't fill the postcard out, but still send it back. The company that sent it to you had to pay the USPS for postage on each one they get back. This is a way to support the USPS by doing very little, and sticking it to the annoying companies that want all of your money.

[daniel-oneiroi]

In the 90s we would send companies “hate mail” by stuffing prepaid envelopes with things like ‘blanks’ (flat heavy metal pieces), a roofing shingle) and layers of other competitors’ mail or junk news. This is because the company would have to pay more upon recieving the junk mail. It eats into them. It actually somewhat reduced our junk mail returnables, I think.  Send that mail y’all.
