    Didn't stop the President from hailing that as a "tax cut". Isn't it fair to say that taxes have now been raised on all wage earners who don't work for themselves?

    Yeah, top marginal rate in California pays 13.3% income tax. along with a 9.5-10% sales tax... :MARIS61:

    more on the way too. eventually it'll probably break the camel's back and I need to bone the fuck outta here. but its really a preview of coming attractions for the rest of the country.

    I'm at that state income tax rate. I'm paying 38% now for both state and federal. That's excluding unemployment and social security I will never see when I retire.

    6.2% has been the normal tax rate for years,and this year the rate has gone back to normal. I'm glad I had the chance to invest more last year. now THAT I am happy about.

    The executive branch isn't raising your taxes.

    Who and what do you think is responsible for the 3.8% investment income surtax?

    That percentage was allocated into my 401K.

    My money manager is the same as my dad's. On top of $3800 a month pension through UPS, I'm gonna be able to crack into a pretty 401K when I retire.

    Damn Union.

    Dedication and diligence, knowledge of my craft, and referrals from satisfied customers = "luck".

    Real estate here in Beautiful Central Oregon is selling like hotcakes right now! Busiest winter I've had in 6 years.

    Nope. It's a mandate from Obamacare. This one falls squarely on Obama and his ramming a terrible bill down American's throats.

    Mine's down a little, but it won't change how we live. We may put just a little less into savings, but even that might not happen depending on investments/options.
