Have the one for married folks?

Yeah, I do. My bad, was at work.

Married people,
-If you make less then $76k, your taxes will go UP.
-$76k-$90k, your taxes go DOWN.
-$90k-$153k, your taxes go UP
-$153k- $233k, your taxes stay the SAME
-$233k-$260k, your taxes go DOWN
-$260k- $470k, your taxes go UP

Overall, not a good look for probably 3/4 of the country

So basically, For income taxes purposes:

Single people,
-If you make less then $38k, your taxes will go UP.
-$38k-$45k, your taxes go DOWN.
-$45k-$92k, your taxes go UP
-$92k- $192k, your taxes stay the SAME
-$192k-$200k, your taxes go DOWN
-$200k- $418k, your taxes go UP

Also, its not worth having a mortgage, since the standard deuction will be raised.

Anyone with kids, you will be getting less for them on tax returns. They will RAISE the child tax by $600/ child, but ELIMINATE a deduction of $4,000 that they were giving per child, so they are ADDING $3,500 into your tax return per child.

Republicans, bruh.

This is inaccurate breh. You have to apply the tax rates on a marginal basis. You can’t just look at the marginal income levels.

If your’e single, dont own a home, and have good income, you’re more or less coming out ahead on this before any deduction considerations.

Not to say it’s good policy, but I’m coming to out ahead to the tune of about $13k, effective tax rate nearly halved.

I was just comparing the basic tax chart at the beginning of the income tax return. Of course, everyones situation is different. It will depend on what other deductions a person has. More then likely, people have kids so they will have less deductions given. Might be good for you, you may fall in one of those sweet spots. Most of America wont be so lucky
