For 30k, one expected to pay 7500/yr taxes, although usually that was diverted by the employer and not noticed as much (other than the standard “why is my pay 465/wk instead of 576/wk?” question).
This would knock the takehome down by ~$30/wk due to the increased withholding by the employer to cover that 1500.
And when we look at it from our comfy warm homes, it doesn’t seem like a lot. But, I can confirm from when I was working 3 jobs to support a university habit, that $30 was fucking crushing. I think that’s 2 days a week of food, when every penny is bled out of you already.
Wanna bet the GqP is looking at it like $30 is nothing, like they’re just skipping the appetizer at the clubhouse one day a week?

Don’t be silly. 30 is not even on the gop radar. No way they’re skipping an appetizer over it
