I see this become apparent on social media every so often and it’s really just depressing how widespread the misunderstanding is.
51% of Americans who were polled in a 2021 survey agreed with the statement that “You pay your marginal tax rate on all of your income”.
It really must be so fucking nice to know there is literally not a lie too stupid or far fetched for their base to believe.
Like imagine being able to live life just inventing your own reality.
Like your boss walks in and you’re leaned back in the chair hammered smoking a joint but when you get called into hr you say you didn’t do that (you’re still visibly drunk and still smoking the joint) and your boss is just a liar who has it out for you.
So hr fires your boss and gives you $10,000 for a screenshot of your signature.
