[quote=FlyerInHi][quote=flu]Meh. I said it before and I’ll say it again. It doesn’t matter who is in charge…..when they talk about tax law changes , w2 wage earners in the upper income always end up footing the bill the most.
Frankly, I don’t care because I am surprised most of you would be surprised that taxes wouldn’t be going up … I am pretty sure my taxes would have gone up under Hillary too.
That said, I am glad I am making a lot more this year than last year with my new job, and my investments have more or less been doing great. And it’s great living free and clear and only need to be saving/invest in for my kids college…assuming mine goes to college. Maybe after Trump, people don’t need to go to college. Kinda like America’s version of the cultural revolution. Lolol
Some my.my buddies just got their offers from Apple, Facebook, etc…ok, given they are probably above average performers. I was blown away by their comp packages….. Just senior level engineers, not management , around $300-$350k total. I’d say tech is still doing pretty well in CA[/quote]
What an interesting post.
You say you don’t care but you care a great deal. BTW, Hillary had a tax plan whereas Trump’s promises are nebulous as always. The only certainty with Trump is that he’s out for himself.
And about Trump, remember that the “American Cultural Revolution” is aided and abetted by the Republicans. But no wonder because the American pitchfork peasants vote for the exactly opposite of what they want. At least the Chinese pitchfork peasants who supported Mao’s cultural revolution were more rational. what characterizes pitchfork peasants universally is the low education culture. However, now in the 21st century, the Chinese have become wiser and universally want university education for their kids (even is they can’t afford it, they still want it). It won’t be long before China matches the educational levels of South Korea.
Anyway… we can let the free market and the free flow of capital decide who deserves the economic rewards of the future.[/quote]
I don’t care anymore than I use to because I am used to getting screwed in taxes before….some of you folks that are getting screwed over now for the first time are complaining about what the rest of us that use to get regularly screwed over have been complaining about , but fell on deaf ears… That’s why it doesn’t bother us nearly as much as apparently it’s bothering you. We’ve already been seasoned by it…. Welcome to tax hell… Doesn’t feel good when you get taxed to support people and regions you don’t like, does it? Welcome to tax hell.
