When did you learn taxes are theft and should I just go back to my old job?

You're supposed to leverage your higher current salary in negotiations for your third job.

They'll offer you less if you're pulling down 35k than 52k.

Lemme guess you moved out of your parents home negating most of the increase in salary.

Taxes can go suck my dick. Isnt the motherfucking point of taxes to help people? I get no fucking benefit. Roads? Prefer dirt and cars can just be customized to have tires that provide more traction. Cement is stupid outside the freeway.
School? Useless. GE classes up the ass. Provides no skills for employment or self-employment. Aid to the poor? Im fucking poor myself and get 0 aid. Military? Too much of something is pointless. Overspent. Etc.

Then theres this guy that paid 0 in income taxes for his company. Nice system weve got here.

Taxes dont do anything useful besides provide utility services... and thats really fucking it

This. And frankly your second, higher paying job should actually be easier to gain raises in to maximize your wagie worth to your third employer. Your second higher paying job has proved you're finally not useless to employers and proves you can start asking for raises cuz, shit congrats, you're doing something right.
Then hopefully crypto makes you rich and you don't have to wagie forever

I wouldn't consider taxation to be theft if it went to a good cause. Instead it goes to welfare and impeachment hoaxes. I think 5-10% is reasonable for essential services but anything over that is daylight robbery. I'm considering converting to a cypherpunk and never paying tax again. If I can net $200k+ this bull run it will be enough to work from home off trading forever. If they want my tax they can come and claim it.

Federal taxes are ~evenly split between old people healthcare, old people UBI, military shit, and [debt interest + everything else].

State and local taxes handle most of the roads, education (salaries + pensions), prisons, police, and fire.

That's an extra 17k per year. There is no way a 17k increase leads to a 15,800 tax increase. This is just a larp to bait libtards, but OP is so dumb he doesn't understand tax brackets so couldn't make it believable.

He’s saying 100 per month.

I definitely felt the shit when I went from 20 an hour in a state with no state income tax to 50k in a state with state income tax. My pay felt the same. Then I started making 168k on 1099 and pay more than my old salary every year in taxes. Harder to retire with the government needs a third of everything you make.

17000-(12*100)=15800.
> I went from 20 an hour in a state with no state income tax to 50k in a state with state income tax
You moved from a state with no income tax to a state with income tax. Not really relevant to a discussion about tax brackets.
