reytsmanКак известно, наш дорогой и горячо любимый президент, сказал, что все кто зарабатывает больше 200-250к в год на семью, это злобные буржуи и мы их будем налогово раскулачивать...
За все годы, данная выкладка из газеты, это пожалуй наилучшая иллюстрация, что такое 200-250к дохода в год....
Take such a married couple, both working, with four kids out in a nice suburb. Say two kids are in college. The parents make too much for scholarships, so that could be two times $50,000 right there, or $100,000 in school bills. Mortgage? Let's be conservative: $2,000 a month. Property taxes? Let's say $10,000. Throw in insurances, car payments, food, utilities, gas. You're easily at $150,000 in costs before anyone has bought a movie ticket, let alone a yacht.
Now. At a 40% federal tax and a 5% state tax, and a 1% city tax -- typical to many areas in this country -- you only get to keep 54% of all you earn, or in this $250,000 example, just $135,000. Which means this couple is already $15K in the red -- while people label them "ultra-rich."
