        So.... wait, they’re increasing taxes on those in poverty? And then reducing them for people that make 3-10 times as much? Am I reading this chart right guys?

        You don't need experts. You just need excel. Everyone under $81,500 is worse off.

        Still way too high. If you make $250K/ year the gov is not entitled to 35% of it. Everyone should pay the same rate, regardless of income!!

        Shouldn't the tweeted chart show that those earning $480,051 - $1M see their rate drop from 39.6% to 35%?

        I get that, but there should be a downward red line from left to right columns showing what the impact of new brackets on that cohort...

        ...flat red line from left implies all above $480,050 are moving to new 39.6% bracket.

        Nice, Just noticed though there is still a piece missing. Those making 237,950 to 260,000 are being taxed less. 33% to 25%.
