My suggestion on tax cuts and payroll tax...

Instead of suspending payroll tax, cut the income tax rate for the first $110K by 7.5%. Same amount of money in our pockets without touching Social Security. Then, lift the cap on Social Security taxes to make it solvent forever. Then raise the top income tax bracket rate to where it was before 2017.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
