For whatever reason, posts can only be so long or you get an error message.

This has happened before.

I think I know why but moving on.

Since I had to explain this, allow me to tell you a story.

Granddaughter got job at McDonalds. TWELVE dollars an hour for working there!!!!

Anyway I talked to her before she got her first paycheck.

“I don’t know if they’re still not taking FICA money out of paychecks,” I explained to her, my wise self who spent a lifetime processing payroll. “But you’ll have to have federal taxes and goodness Maryland taxes are at 6% now,” I went on.

“No they won’t take taxes out of my check,” granddaughter shouted, shutting me up for a moment.

“Why not?” I asked.

“Because I am a minor,” she told me, all knowledgeable about such things.

SHE DOESN’T THINK SHE SHOULD HAVE TAXES WITHHELD FROM HER PAYCHECK BECAUSE SHE’S A MINOR!!!!

I told her no matter how old you are, YOU MUST PAY TAXES!

Seriously folks, do they teach them anything in school besides racism and riots and hating Trump.

Granddaughter is going to have a big lesson with her first paycheck.

Good one!

After she get’s her first paycheck, tell her:

Welcome to the real world.

Now you see why normal working people don’t support the democrat party!

Also, tell me what you know about this error?

I’ve been posting this thread like every Sunday for 21 years. This error is a first for me.

Students shouldn’t be allowed to graduate without that life lesson.

Also,a real discussion on Medicare vs Medicaid and how long you pay for Medicare.

Throw in SS and earnings limitations, how your Medicare payment may rise based on your tax return. And end with is SS a tax ? , and do you think it’s possible to be taxed on a tax.

I have done this test when the opportunity presented itself and they had no clue
