Uncle Sam has gotta get his, I get it, after all it goes to all of us as citizens right? Well what percentage does our nation need to get us through? Based on a check that a friend got from work (his last check) good ol' Uncle Sam needs about 97%! Like I said, it was his last check, and from a gross of $22.40 he pocketed a whopping $.68! Thats right $21.72 was taken. Aren't you glad we give up 97% of our incomes to all of the wonderful government programs that we have available to us?
This is just a joke, he actually had it set up to take out a flat rate of $20 out of each check for FIT (Fed. Income Tax) since this was a side job, but it is funny that it worked out that his last check was just over that and left his take home at $.68.
