I had an entire dollar withheld from my paycheck!

Hurrrmpph!! Who do I report it to here!!! Hurrrrmpphh! I wonder if the RWing hate sites will mention that?

Of course not!

Haters gotta hate.

RWingers cannot stand the fact that our pony won!

Pass it on!

1. They're really crawling out of the freakin' wood-work today, aren't they?

Is Rush airing reruns or something?

2. A friend of mine on FB who doesn't like Obama is bitching about $10 being taken out of her

paycheck. She's not starving, either. She and her husband both have decent jobs.

4. another argument these dumbasses are making is

that the money being taken out is to pay for his Hawaiian trip-you can't argue with stupid.

3. You must work for very low pay.

Something substantially less than what is considered middle-class income these days, right?

I don't expect much of a hit either, but then again I'm poor.

5. Are you making fun of people with low incomes?

Is this satire? It's not clear

Millions of Americans don't even have a paycheck. There are no jobs. Employment benefits have been exhausted. Plenty of working class people can barely get by with the shitty paychecks they do get, as wages have stagnated for decades and costs keep rising.

7. Silly rabbit, mocking the working poor is a core progressive principle!

8. Apparently.

Nasty stuff circulating on DU this week - rabid wolverines have more empathy than some folks around here. Don't let them get you on the ground, they'll gnaw off your leg and laugh while they're doing it.

10. I'm a food stamp and medicaid

caseworker regardless of whether people knew this would happen and the reasons why or not, it effects people. I myself by no means am excited about it either and I am a full time employee of the state I will get hit for about $20 per pay period, nothing big right? Well believe it or not I do live paycheck to paycheck.

6. Most of the middle class will see their pay go down $30-60 a month

That's pretty significant for some families.

It's a more significant amount than what the rich will be giving up in increased taxes.

9. I suspect your check is coming from hours worked in tax year 2012. That might explain the low

number.
