Oh bullshite. It strikes at the heart of why America and Americans are great. They work harder. And if you haven’t paid enough taxes in 40 hours then the government can frick right off. Anything over that should be yours free and clear. This incentives work ethic.

Where is Trump going to offset the reduction in tax revenue? The taxes should go down, but spending must also go down. And because of deficit spending, the spending must go down more than the taxes go down.

It doesn’t matter what the rate is. By not charging taxes, he is literally letting people keep their earnings that will be invested, spent into the economy, etc.

I only get paid overtime for certain parts of the year. I’m also basically forced to work it so it isn’t a choice. But after an extra 60 hours of work on the road , you look at your check and you are disgusted. Because you worked two and a half times as much and made a quarter more. It’s bullshite.

47% of people don’t pay any taxes. Start with them.

Same place he got the “tax refund” checks he handed out before his last election…deficit spending.

That's the dumbest thing I have ever read here, and that is saying quite a lot.

Where is this "40 Hour Rule" enshrined?

You know that there is no special tax rate for overtime, right?

You just made more money, so you paid more taxes.

Let me ask you Proletariats this: What about small business owners who work 60-70 hours a week standard?

How does the "40 Hour Rule" apply to them? How do they get their income taxes limited?

Beat me to it.

What they do not realize is that not everyone in that 47% is a welfare recipient. It also includes some of the wealthiest Americans.

That's what I thought.

Then why did you claim there was?

And I quote...

That sounds like an "ought" statement of the type that inalienable rights are made of.

So maybe your Carter-era Southern Democrat Norma Rae style brain can answer this: how do we apply the 40 hour rule to small business (or large business) owners who routinely put in 70-80 hour weeks?

If I have a second job should it be entirely tax free?

I don’t see why not. If it’s over 40 hours then it only seems fair.

They think overtime is currently taxed higher. Theyre bad at math.
