Um, OK. So exactly which taxes were you officially notified were being raised 30-38%? Also how was this "official" notification presented?

Today I have officially been notified by my employer to expect a 30-38% tax increase this coming year. That brings the total amount of taxes I pay to just at 50% of my monthly income.

I just wanted to say thank you to the other 50% of Americans who support and re-elected our most Nobel and Honorable Leader, Mr. Barrack Obama. Today I have officially been notified by my employer to expect a 30-38% tax increase this coming year. That brings the total amount of taxes I pay to just at 50% of my monthly income. So, I wanted to express my appreciation to you personally for your liberalism and humanitarian views of spread the wealth.
You have helped elect a fraudulent, socialist thief.. Enjoy your free health care, welfare checks, free cell phones because millions are now having to work twice as hard to keep from loosing their jobs, houses and vehicles to pay for yours!
On a closing note, I have officially removed “Old Glory”, which I have proudly flown my entire life. Call me what you will but I have served, fought and endured the loss friends and family for this country and what she stood for. What have you done? Recently I have seen the last shred of its morals and values cast aside for what? I am ashamed to be grouped in with "those" so called Americans who would allow anyone like this guy to be in office.
So again, thanks for stealing money from my family and giving it to people who are too lazy to earn it!!

Not sure of the exact numbers yet.. the "official" briefing will be within the next few weeks, but my supervisor is saying we (all of us making above 105k) are expected to receive at least a 30-38% federal tax increase. It was an informal "Breaking the News" departmental meeting so that we have time to calm down before the corporate meeting.

The tax increase is based on yearly income, and yes, if you work for a living its going to affect you too!

At my income level (105k-250k) the tax levels are estimated to increase 30-38%, and it not my employer isn’t raising the “federal” taxes. Everyone in my career field or income level is going to be getting the same increase.

Right now I pay a flat 18% tax on my monthly gross, for what ever reason, who ever made the call… to pay for obama’s health care bill my federal income taxes are expected to go up between 30 and 35%... not up too 35%... up BY 35% which is actually a 53% tax on our gross income.
