Calculator Shows How Expiration of Bush-Era Tax Cuts Would Affect Individual Taxpayers
Tax Foundation ^ | 7-30-2010 | Tax Foundation Staff

Posted on 07/29/2010 10:35:01 PM PDT by Sen Jack S. Fogbound

The Tax Foundation has launched a "Bush tax cuts" calculator at www.MyTaxBurden.org, which allows taxpayers to compare their 2011 federal income tax liabilities under three scenarios: if all the Bush tax cuts expire completely at the end of this year, if they're all extended into 2011 or made permanent, and if President Obama's budget is adopted, which includes a combination of expirations and extensions.

Taxpayers can type in basic information-such as filing status, wage income and number of dependents-along with optional more detailed information-such as capital gains and dividend income, state and local taxes paid and other itemized deductions-and determine what their federal income tax burden would be in 2011.

Mass Scofflaws! They couldn’t hire enough IRS thugs if everyone just stopped paying their taxes out of protest.

If Congress fails to act to extend the
Bush tax cuts, your income tax burden
will be $602 higher in 2011.

Nice. Interesting. Good even. But largely beside the point.

The real issue is how the expiration of GW’s “tax cuts for the wealthy” will push more small businesses (most of which are LLCs or S corps, which means taxed personally on business income) under. And that means MASSIVE job losses.

Does 0 care? Dunno. Maybe someone should ask him between rounds of golf, vacations, and fluff talk shows.

PS Of course I know. This is what the obamanation WANTS. It would be a crisis to exploit on his drive push to America into international socialism...

I noticed that. I’m wondering if I really want to input my financial information to a website that may be run by some leftist wacko.

drive push to America into international socialism...

The media says SOCIALISM when in fact BLACK LIBERATION THEOLOGY that Obama is emersed in is simply COMMUNISM for blacks.

Socialism is simply an intermediate step to COMMUNISM.

I dont know about that caluclator but here is a link to the tax rates in 2000 which is what they will revert to if the Bush tax cuts are not renewed and the rates in 2010 you can toggle between the 2 years and see the difference. If the tax cuts expire my rate will go up 6% from 25% to 31%. Now this will not have deductions like that other calculator had but merely shows the tax bracket and rate. Notice to that the lower rates were reduced more than the upper income so that means lower end will see a bigger increase in rate as far a percentage of increase. So much for the tax cuts were only for the rich that was pure BS
