Should a public employee with $150,000 in overtime in 2026 pay no federal income tax on that?
At most tax on Social Security should be limited to half paid for by employers.
As for no tax on tips, perhaps just exempt the physical money share.
I think it’s a great idea. Too bad Trump don’t drink, he could dropped taxes on wine, vodka, beer, and whiskey. I guess you gotta draw the line somewhere.
Yes, the less taxes the better.
I make $100-$400/day (3 days a week at a golf club) plus $15/hour. This means a lot. Not that I ever reported a dime of it anyway, but it still means a lot.
“Yes, the less taxes the better.”
Taxes should be fair and set to match federally necessary spending.
We have gotten away from having taxes match spending so federal money is being handed out for silly and sometimes evil things.
I'm against anymore freebies for govt workers.
Ah...so a cheater....you should be very proud.
The club reports it and takes it out of our checks.
If someone hands me a hundred dollar bill for helping him and his guests all day, then getting them on another private club the next day - what business is that of anyone’s but ours?
Taxes will never be fair until there are no taxes or there is a flat rate everyone pays.
Social Security for seniors being taxed never made sense since it is a government payout with money they took from you to begin with. It is not generated revenue.

You betcha. I know it still has to go through Congress. But is it too much to ask for the Social Security break to be retroactive to the 2024 tax year?
Yeah, it probably is.
Definitely sounds like a very useful step forward.
Taxing social security is like stealing the children’s Christmas presents back from them on New Year’s Day.
Except that they earned their presents in the first place.
We need to abolish the conter- productive and costly income tax.
Asap!
I worked for NY State. Retired in 2003. The money that we were required to pay into the pension fund was taxed before they took it, so when we retired, there is no State tax on our pension.
The beginning of the end of double taxation?
Now, how about the inheritance taxes...
It is taking blood out of one arm to put in the other arm and spilling 90% of it in the transfer.
