Announce in AM to my Folks less $$ in paycheck

[JensJrny2Ray 367]

You just called your employees "the working poor". Why not give them a little bit of a raise then to offset it?

This is not a new tax, simply a return to the prior rate.

everyone knows that.

even rhr knows that.

but he enjoys trolling.

Who's the Brit?

Isn't that red thing on your flag an image of Shakespeare's wig?

What he is referring to is the temporary drop in employee paid social security tax. The rate was dropped by 2% for 2012 so everyone was paying 2% less in tax this past year in an effort to boost the economy. The temporary drop in rate was not renewed thus beginning on January 1, 2013 everyone will see a 2% increase in tax for social security on income up to the limit, somewhere around $106,000 in income.

This is not a new tax, simply a return to the prior rate.

If you want to make a real argument, talk about how the government "borrows" from the social security fund. To me this money should be untouchable just like any companies pension fund. Or why don't you complain about how the old people who currently receive social security aren't getting annual cost of living increases to match the real rate of increases because working people don't want to pay the tax?

When you struggle to get by and Washington takes 2% more than they took last year , you don't care about verbiage

Well seeing as I'm almost eligible to collect social security I say we raise the rate by 6%. I have a high standard of living and expect the government to support me in my old age just like it supports the young people with 20 illegitimate kids.

I have to announce to my employees in the morning why their next check will be 2% less than it was this week. The dems have that most of the voted for , just passed a bill that takes 2% more out of thier check. Most of them pay no taxes due to EIC, Depedants etc. This 2% hit they can not avoid.

Dems just took 2% from the working poor.

Let us know what yer folksen say - I'd love to know their feeback.

My employees are in the same boat ...

southerners can be so embarrassing.

I just checked with my Southerner and he told me that to him his "folks" are his parents, though perhaps in context "my folks" could mean employees.

Also, Canadians don't sound British to him, but then again his dad let him watch PBS as a kid.

I don't think his Daddy would take kindly to being called a Yankee.

Your Humor detector is broken . I really don't know much about Canadians. That chick that was married to Mick Jagger was hot as I don't know what and I enjoy jeopardy.
