That is poor. Not OT poor but really poor in 2022.

They must know they are going to cheat in the elections and win.
No rational politician would do this if a fair election was coming up.
I seriously hate these people

Democrats always name their bills the opposite of what they actually do.
I mean, taking spending money out of the hands of people who earn it will likely reduce inflation. At least in theory.

Not a problem at all for Democrats. They'll just change the definition of tax increase.

You know this is legit when it's gone to page 2 and none of the board leftie trolls chime in with their defensive spin.

At the end of the day, ALL TAXES are paid by the final consumer!

Looks like I’m headed for a 24% increase according to that

Clinton's bold initiative in advocating tax increases was in fact fiscally responsible, and produced a balanced budget around the turn of the century.
That's a great gulf fixed from Trump's tax cuts for The Rich, which we could not afford, and paved the way for a 43-seat house landslide in 2018 and a Pelosi speakership. Whether or not some felt the tax cuts were justified, the optics of them were just atrocious.

Did the wealth gap grow or shrink under Trump?

And who was speaker of the house?
You know Congress works with President on spending?
The President submits a budget but Congress holds the purse strings.
Who held him and Killary in check with her Socialist policies?
Who had a contract with America?

He's the most dishonest president in American history. His administration knowingly lies every single day about most every issue we face.
However, the big corporate media and big tech companies do not care and in fact encourage it.
If Trump were in office, or any republican for that matter, you'd see a graphic every single day on cnn and msnbc counting the lies being told.
We are done as a country because one side will never have to be accountable for anything they say or do. That's just the way it is.

Anytime the government takes money that you earned from you, that’s BAD.

If Republicans weren't completely inept they could make this his George Bush moment. But they snatch defeat from the jaws of victory more consistently than the sun rising.

If you look at the last column on the right (which the OP left off his post) you will indeed see that these taxes will go up.
But by almost laughably small amounts.
In fact you know whose go up the most? Those who make less than 10k.
For example those who pay taxes on 50 to 75k will see it rise from 13.0 to 13.1
One bracket below will rise from 10.4 to 10.5
One bracket above goes from 15.8 to 16.0
For every thousand dollars a person pays in taxes it will go up ten dollars according to the chart (that was not linked in the OP). All the way on the right...
The biggest hit is on those over 100k - their tax bill will go up by 30 dollars per thousand that they pay. Hey, but Biden said no raised taxes so, sure, you got him, he raised them by 0.1 to 0.3 percent!

Inflation Reduction Act 
If, and that’s a humongous IF all they do is raise taxes and use it to pay off debt that’s one thing. We need to stop putting more and more and more on the credit card and having our kids pay for it, and it was horribly sad to see so many “fiscally responsible conservatives cheering when Trump used his political capital to make his tax cuts but didn’t focus on what really needed to be addressed which was government spending.
So for this bill I wonder if they are just raising taxes or will it be coupled with more spending tied to it.

Come on Jack, none of the experts saw inflation coming.
This is an emergency!
