Yes, I do understand that wasn't his point. But why bring it up at all? We all know taxes are going to reduce the value of any pay raise, just like they reduce the value of our current rates. Does anybody really not understand that?
I'm going to buy a new car since we're getting a pay raise. Currently I don't have a car payment, but I figure the new car will set me back about $900 a month. Crap! Now my raise has been cut in half! What an insult. I'm voting NO.
