Bro just give up. Those MAGA clowns don’t have the intellectual capability to understand what “average” is. In times like these you need the median, tells you a lot more than the mean does.
What they don’t talk about is the impact of the mindless blanket tariffs on Americans.
Poor and middle class will end up spending a lot more to buy the same amount of goods (food, medicines etc.,). The gains from the tax cuts to the poor and middle class will not be enough to overcome that extra burden. Not to mention the continuous gutting of welfare schemes to enable the tax cuts.
On the flipside, the impact of to tariffs on the rich is negligible and the tax cuts in fact dominate this change for them.
So, the president’s tax cut plan is shifting money from the poor to the rich. Now, Sarah Sanders has to explain why should any member of congress be for it?
Stay in math class kids
“By the statistics, last year everyone got to eat one chicken. If you didn’t, do not worry, it just means someone else got to eat two” Very roughly translated from a poem of Trilussa, roman poet (1871-1950)
What do they consider “average”?? Hmm?
No more schools, roads, or clean drinking water but hey I got $4k
if you want a 40% raise, just stop paying taxes
This reminded me of [this comic](https://www.smbc-comics.com/comic/2012-04-03).
Just replace Felix with Elon and you have the current US.
Maga thinks math is a “librul conspiracy”. You really think they can comprehend the difference between median and average? Lol these monkeys can barely wipe themselves competently.
And, if you raise the taxes on all the proles you can give even more to a smaller number of Oligarchs!
Trump’s actual math: If we raise taxes by a couple of grand on a hundred million people and take out trillions in loans we can give Elon and his friends tens of billions while crashing out the American Economy so we can acquire the assets at pennies on the dollar!
Got to be pedantic here.
“The average person” when used here is actually referring to the median person. So $0.
It’s more accurate if reworded to “Everyone got $4000 on average”.
Sarah has the ‘perfect answer’ to this woke math. The families #2-25 can get more income because she has removed child labor restrictions so you can send your kids to work at a younger age and they can work more dangerous jobs thanks to her.
Not only does this let lower income people get more $$ to spend, it addresses the labor shortage that the anti-immigrant push has created.
A true MAGA win-win!!! /s
Would that $4000 cover the lost services that they now have to pay for?
If i remember correctly. Unless you earn over 350.000 $ a year, you will pay more in taxes.
There are lies, damn lies, and means.
Very old tweet from the first Trump administration
It’s literally a bribe. Trump is going full mob boss.
That’s why they don’t use average when discussing things like this. Cause if the used median it would look really bad
Hucklebee Hound: “Boy howdy, math is hard!”
I live in the state this bitch runs. I know her family. I’ve worked for them. I know other people who have worked for them. They’re actually even more loathsome than you would ever know from just by watching national or state news. However bad you think they are, they’re worse. I’ll just leave it at that.
For every $151m they find, you get $1. Do the math on what well need to “save” to make this happen.
The average person has about half of a penis.
It’s so short sighted. People will find out the real truth within no time.
Michael Schur was/is Ken Tremendous, right?
Someone making median household income saves about $2200 per year under tax cuts, less than $4,000 as noted the average weight sit up but if you look at median household income it’s $2200 per year.
And just think about how much Dems did to tax the rich when they had the chance. The complaints are definitely not a ruse to get elected.
Also we’re going to pay 10,000 more per year for food/housing/utilities/taxes so how the fuck does this help.
Not sure that’s how it works
