I only liked yang because he talks about the demographics that are completely invisible to the Dems. Middle America whites, and truckers.
I agree Aro, but I think a lot of his ideas are not really workable.
His s $1000 a month thing makes no sense
Plus he was simply pandering without understanding what's truly behind them
Except that he only 'cares' about the truckers because he's worried they're going to block traffic and engage in armed protest over losing their jobs.
1000 a month will fix problems just like Welfare did!
13% of the population, can't be wrong!
Exactly
When someone says they want to duplicate the success of the black community to the rest of America I'm suspicious.
When it seems too good to be true it usually is
Because I'm a huge rascist obviously.
Not to forget, 1000 doesnt mean people will automatically want to do shit. Many will just sit and do nothing
Cause there is no repercussions according to hin
1000 a month is almost a 10/hr fulltime job
I mean, I could technically feed my family on two of those incomes. Right up until the massive double digit inflation.
man how much do you think people pay in taxes when they make $10/hr?
Ok its a bit exagerated, but not that much.
A fulltime job at $10 is $1600
Before tax
And you basically don't pay taxes at that income level
Still gotta do SS
Plus at 1600 you're paying taxes. Not a lot, but some.
it's $1733.33
@Make Jerusalem Christian Again indeed. He always does this crap
Right I did 40hrs x 4 weeks @yearspastmatter
But it's a bit more than that
yep
that only gets you 48 weeks
gotta do 52
$20,800 a year
maybe I'm spitballing here but where does 20k / year put you in taxes?
That's in the lowest non-poverty bracket iirc
lowest bracket
Lets not forget the tax cuts comin
If you make $20,800 a year, you probably take home $17,500 or $18,000 and then get a $1000-1250 refund
Yeah tax calculator says about a $2500 tax burden
So you are right on
because W-4s are stupid and there's no way to actually have them take out what you owe even if you choose minimum withholdings
Too bad Dems were overrepresented in that poll and it's actually a near deadlock @Fondboy
