Not sure what choice has to do with what I was saying. Of course those are choices, but my point was that there are certain inflection points with income where post-tax income can actually go down.

There are other deductions that no longer come into play after a certain income. If I recall correctly, mortgage interest, child tax credits, and some medical deductions.
Problem is that the Uber wealthy have all sorts of extra tax vehicles that even the 400k/year income folks don’t have. With various holding companies owning the various assets you use (e.g your car, house, etc.) your on-paper income can be quite a bit lower. Throw in various deductions and that’s how you get super wealthy people paying less taxes than “regular” people. Progressive tax rates already exist, and while this increases the percentage at these incomes, unless it addresses all the other loopholes, this will conveniently miss the 1% and instead impact high earning professionals.
In the US you could absolutely fall into a new range where certain deductions no longer apply, so you could make that extra little bit of income, then lose out on deductions totaling more than your increased income.
It’s not as simple as the progressive tax brackets look at first glance.

Playing that one note song again. Care so much about genocide? Look directly within China’s own borders if you want to see one.
Well, let’s get all three branches of government solidly blue. Then you can complain about things not getting done.
Sad part is that if they had just released the game as “Early Access” and didn’t bullshit so many of the underlying economy simulation aspects, it wouldn’t have been such a disaster.
Hopefully they get some multi-year prison sentences to make an example out of them. Something that their money can’t buy them out of.
Hamas is a terrorist organization plain and simple. Trying to call them “Freedom Fighters” is like trying to polish a turd.
Do Nestle and water profits next!
The world news community on .ml is just Russian and Chinese propoganda.
Have you lived anywhere other than a dense city? Mass transit doesn’t work everywhere.
