Oh, so you are in school, Vince? Studying what? Ebonics, probably, by the way you type. But, wait, you just said that you work at a private school!

There must be a lot of school in your life, Vince. It's a shame that none of it has rubbed off on you.

And your big theory is to make more money so I can even pay MORE of my salary is just stupid and shows why you should never vote.


You definitely can't be studying math, that's for sure. 25% is 25%, regardless of whether it's a quarter of $20K or $100K.

Look, I will make it easy:

20,000 * 0.25 = 4000 (16,000 left over for buying candy)
100,000 * 0.25 = 25,000 (75,000 left over for buying candy)

You're still paying 25%, so how are you paying MORE of your salary? Your total income has gone up in proportion and you're $60,000 richer.

Mmmm.... candy.
