What are you talking about, man?… your link directly proves your statement wrong. Unless you were trying to say the opposite of what you accidentally said?
Because the charts clearly show that married joint filers pay lower rates than single individuals. Is that what you were trying to say? Because your statement was the exact opposite of that
$200,000 of income as a single individual pays 10% on the first $11,000, 12% from there to $44,725, 22% from there to $95,375, 24% from there to $182,100, and 32% from there to $200,000
$200,000 of income as a married couple pays 10% on the first $22,000, 12% from there to $89,450, 22% from there to $190,750, and 24% from there to $200,000
That feels like it significantly benefits the married couple, no? My apologies if saying it felt like a lie was an inaccurate reflection of your intentions… but I don’t really see where a claim that singles are advantaged over married couples comes from. Help me out here.
