@jwhandley17 No salary went up 33% take home only 25%. That’s almost a 10% pt difference. If it were proportional then take home should be about £4138. That’s a £243 diff which amounts to an additional £5831 loss in tax per year
@noonecares215@sondesix @kojoAlphar It’s still disingenuous to come out with a next gen phone with over a year old internals. There is no need for an iPhone 15 when the 14 pro is already better. It’s clearly just a means to cash grab. And I say that as someone who’s only owns Apple
@AndyMatteoMusic @GagasChapel911@ianmiles It’s also not unreasonable to think that this guy is psychopathic and immoral human being that needs to be removed and is putting a nasty stain to police officers in this country. And you wonder why communities have trust issues with police
@raeynedrop @m00nton@williamlegate@wideofthepost But trying to make the change in THIS country. “Saying full time pay for 32 hours” makes absolute sense to AMERICANS bc 40 hr work weeks are the norm. The point here is to change the length of the workweek, not to make it seem like employers will pay lazy workers a 8 free hrs
@SlavicAgent@AdamSchiavone@mbyhoff@wideofthepost Yes there are many people especially republicans who would view this as subsidizing the poor or just “socialism”. Business owners and moderates will likely oppose this bc it sounds like giving people free money which is why messaging matters
@m00nton@williamlegate@wideofthepost Bc messaging matters. Especially if you’re trying to garner public support. Democrats have consistently failed with messaging look at how well defunding the police went -.-
@zapatistazaddy@JetFire05051975@toronai22 Don’t bother. These are Marxist. Anything short from a revolution will never be enough to them. In their view, anything democrats do is simply to appease the masses and prevent a revolution. They would rather have the gop bc in their view, this will bring the revolution sooner🙄
@the_transit_guy But don’t several studies show this is actually more equitable and progressive bc it prevents old homebuyers from being priced out? Once a home is sold the property tax resets.
@citizen00003 @lwisne@mikesaunders@decentricity@IDoTheThinking I’m glad you agree that communist should feel very comfortable in the us. wait didn’t Rick Scott just issue a travel advisory against communist…. Hmm seems very one sided, anti-first amendment, and will make communists uncomfy. But I’m sure you didn’t criticize that at all
@GAntoineF @CocoaRoulette@RightWingCope You support human rights violations for lgbt and women in Palestine. You should be ashamed? Bc I can assure you that your great state of Palestine would put gay people to death without second thought
