fire the Gender Studies department of Government!

We'll save millions!

XD

There is no gender studies in government.

Unless you mean state colleges.

Your taxes pay for schools

Tax bracket: i make 1000 a year, thats just at the top edge of my bracket. i get taxed 1%. so i take home 900 bucks. now i make 1010 per year, but now i'm in a new bracket. my tax is 2%. i now take home 808 bucks.

Direct taxes in U.S. were first used when a war needed funding

schools have gender studies

My argument wasn't about best tax systems

taxes pay for gender studies 😛

Uhh thats not how tax brackets work Grenade

I don't care if colleges have gender studies.

tell me how that is not a punishment for making more money?

I care if colleges repress ideas.

its like gender studies was designed specifically to be a wasteful gouvernment expenditure

@Grenade123 nobody supports that system, when people talk brackets they mean progressive tax bracket

My argument was about so called 'trickle down economics' or economics, as anyone else calls them

Tax brackets work like this. Say 5 10 15% fo simplicity

@Grenade123 income in that bracket gets taxed at that rate

It is Julz

Gender studies is a 0 job opportunity major,

Meaning those people will become poor/useless, and thus want extra benefits from the state (so another voter for welfare)

5% Up to 5000, 10% from 5000 to 10000 and the 15% on anything over 10000

Philosophy studies is a 0 job opportunity major,

Meaning those people will become poor/useless, and thus want extra benefits from the state (so another voter for welfare)

@RyeNorth I agree that supply side economics is important

This is a bad argument.

Philosophy shouldn't be a university degree either

@Dennafen true, speeches and books are lucrative now

not actual numbers just a conceptual simulation

...

Yes it should.

So should gender studies.

Pondering reality doesn't exactly have its uses that a free book on the internet can't provide

It shouldn't be a required class for a major maybe.

@ExceptionalFeather yes, thank you. except what happens when you get small raise that takes you just into the next bracket?

It should be allowed in school, but not be funded a penny

Who makes books though 🤔

That's an argument against school in general @Dr.Wol

You get taxed at the higher percetage for the amount you make IN the higher bracket

@Grenade123 then the portion of the raise that goes in the bracket gets taxed a little more

nah, school should be there to teach you the basics, and later on a trade of choice in something thats valuable to society

Gender studies isn't valuable to society

You don't suddenly get taxed the higher percetage on the full amount
