This shit RIGHT HERE should be the real reason why no one wants to work.
I'm a single 36 year old loser living I
slumville SC that was "lucky" enough to land a state job. I currently make $19.29 per hour, which equates to a salary of 40k. The job isn't too taxing and I don't have to deal with the general public. Not too bad for an incel loser, right?
However, after federal taxes, state taxes, and a "required" state retirement contribution, in reality I only make $13.78 an hour, or 28.5k a year. I lose over 10k of the money I've worked for to this degenerate shithole society and a retirement fund that probably won't even exist in 30 years (along with America).
This handy pie chart really puts it into perspective.
>But what about tax refunds
I literally file my taxes "properly" and for last year I actually OWE $70 to the feds. I am getting about $750 back from my state refund, but that's just a drop in the bucket compared to what gets taken from me.
This shit is absolutely ridiculous and gives me literally zero motivation to participate in a society that actively works against me. If shit doesn't "happen" soon I might fucking lose what little agency I have left and go out with a "bang."
