Speaking of stupid people (looking at you MAGA)..

Trump Takes Credit For Biden-Era $1,000 Match For Low-Income Retirement Plans​

The Trump IRA plan he announce led yesterday with $1000 per year max matching taxpayer contributions, was written into law in 2022

The specific “Saver’s Match” language gives lower-income workers a 50% match on their own contributions to a retirement account, with a limit of $1,000 per year. The match begins to phase out for those whose adjusted gross incomes exceed $20,500 for single filers and $41,000 for married couples filing jointly.

I’m beginning to believe there should be an IQ test to be able to vote

If they did that, 85% of the people would not be allowed to vote.

Probably nobody watching Fox News heard this let alone understands it…

I really do not like Demonturds. Pocahontas throwing accusations out left and right. Fuk her, lying twat. But I will add, IF they investigate him and IF these 'accusations' are true, he should be hung up by his balls. That goes for ANYONE using insider information. F them.

This is a blatant and easily proven lie.

SS is still taxed the same way as always.

It’s depressing we have so many stupid people voting.

I'm going to defend the stupid people for believing the lie. They're still stupid, however, for who they vote for.

I got on to the lie by reading the legislation. Not too many people are going to do that. Heck, even the frauds in congress often don't read what they're voting on or know what it says. The only other way you'd get on to the lie is to see how the numbers work on your tax return. Well, most of the population has a tax preparer or software make out the return, and never looks at what's really going on. So the only information they get is the lie that's pushed at them. By their own negligence or laziness they don't even know there's another version of the "truth", so there's no alternative to believe in, and believing the lie is the only option.

An even more real-life example is wildfire evacuation. How about your car refusing to go when you get this warning?

Level 3 - GO NOW!
Leave immediately! There is extreme danger in the area. It is unsafe to stay and threatens the safety of you, your loved ones and emergency responders. Do not stop to gather belongings or make efforts to protect your home. Emergency responders may not be available to provide help if you choose to stay.

Ok so lazy


At what point does it crossover to stupid?
Tax filing 2028?

Basically if you and your spouse filing jointly are taking SS and almost ANY other income (taxable investments, part time job, etc) your SS is being taxed.

On the other hand if all you take in is SS, there’s a good chance you weren’t paying tax on it to begin with (married jointly under a total of $32,200 in 2026)

However For married couples filing a joint return, you Will pay taxes on up to 50% of your Social Security income if you have a combined income (including your SS) of $32,000 to $44,000. If you have a combined income of more than $44,000, you can expect to pay taxes on up to 85% of your Social Security payments.
Same as always
