Yes, the poorest in the country can't really afford to put anything away. That doesn't mean policy that encourages retirement savings is bad. It would be great to live somewhere where saving for retirement was optional, I'd love that, but that's not what the US is and it's not what it's going to be any time in the near future so encouraging people to be fiscally responsible in the system we exist in seems like a good first step.

Also the point was that the numbers are misleading because it makes it seem like the wealthiest avoid paying sales tax, they don't, they defer paying taxes until they actually spend that money. Not exactly the great injustice you make it out to be.

§m£ÂgØL you are a fucking idiot.

Texas has isolated itself to avoid regulation of power companies and ERCOT pretty much screwed the state.

Frala you are fucking gullible. You should know by now I disagree and make up shit on general principle. Like that time you send me nude pics (multiple times) back before you met Lanny. I told you I wouldn't say a peep but call me a fucking idiot one more time and I will post that picture of you with the cucumber.

I just copy pasted this from reddit bitch. I don't give a shit what either state pays because I don't live there.

Originally posted by Antifa Member Total (EDIT) State and Local Income (EDIT) Taxes Paid, by Income Bracket:

Lowest 20% of earners pay 13% of their income to state and local taxes in Texas. In CA, that number is 10.5%. CA seems to be the clear winner for that group, right?

2nd lowest 20% of earners pay 10.9% of their incomes to state and local in TX. Same date for CA: 9.4%. Again, CA wins.

Middle 20% of earners: TX - 9.7%. CA - 8.3%. So CA wins again.

Next 20% of earners: TX - 8.6%. CA - 9.0%. Finally TX wins, but it's a squeaker. And is that 0.4% in taxes you save make up for how far you are from actual mountains or an actual ocean? EDIT: transposed the percentages when I first posted this, as an observant gent kindly pointer out - corrected the problem.

Next 15% of earners: TX - 7.4%. CA - 9.4%. Finally TX has a clear advantage over CA.

Next 4% of earners: TX - 5.4%. CA - 9.9%. TX wins again!

Top 1% of earners: TX - 3.1%. CA - 12.4%. Huge win for wealthy TX people! Kind of obscene comparing the 3.1% they pay to the 13% that the bottom 20% pay in TX, though.

I'd say, for most people, the TX tax system takes more of their incomes than the CA tax system and the data seems to back that up. It's only among the top 20% of earners when the tax advantages of living in TX kick in. So, living in TX saves Joe Rogan a lot of money, but for most folks it doesn't, or it might well cost them money.
