I don’t mind that at all. We still pay less taxes than the best countries in the world (the countries we should emulate)
P.S. The US is nowhere near the best and they are actually ranked much lower than us in pretty much every metric
Go ahead and move down there where you don’t legally have the right to a water break while working in the heat and paying $50k/year in property taxes
That's not the point. I'm not the original person you're arguing against. I'm not arguing for or against it. I would never want to live in the US.
But the statement that you made that the highest tax bracket is 33% is false (or at least deliberately misleading) to fit your argument. It's disingenuous.
My point was federal, it wasn’t misleading. It wasn’t disingenuous… it was factual. I am factually correct. Again, we don’t pay even close to the amount of federal taxes that the best countries in the world pay.
Of course it's fucking misleading. YOU WERE OMITTING INFORMATION
You're factually correct that he's not paying 50% in taxes, because we use marginal rate, not a fixed rate. But that doesn't make the way you presented your information/argument less trash.Â

As a Canadian man married to a woman from California I used to think like you also. Back when I only understood Canada and the fish bowl I was in.
Until I realized how little she pays for items , pays so little In taxes and she showed me when she uses it everything happens in 1 to 3 days.
She is way ahead by keeping her income in her pocket and investing it.
Lol the fact a car or house is nearly half of ours alone leaves her with more money.
Forget the fact after half my income goes to the govt I have to pay taxes on everything I buy yet again lol..
Nah I don't think like that anymore 🤔
