Nice Story About Nice People

Generac workers get a holiday surprise

George Plehn, a factory worker at Generac Power
Systems Inc., was shocked to come home from work
and find a $31,000 Christmas gift in the mail.
It was a check from Robert and Patricia Kern.
Robert Kern, recently retired, was the founder of Generac,

a Waukesha County company that makes residential,
commercial and industrial power generators. This week,
the Kerns mailed checks to employees that easily added
up to hundreds of thousands of dollars. The total amount
remains a mystery because the Kerns aren't talking about it,
but employees said some people got nearly $50,000.

You have to give Mr.and Mrs. Kerns a lot of credit for
doing something good. As with a saying I say to my family

"You must give before you can receive"

Now I would like to give you a quiz . Get a paper and pencil and
write down the amount of taxes these people should be taxed
on the money they received. Take the person who received
$50,000.00 .

What would be fair ?

10% should be taxed ? - $5000.00 should be paid !

20 % should be taxed? - $ 10,000.00 should be paid.!

25% should be paid? - $12,500.00 should be paid!

Remember , I asking what you think would be a fair tax,
not what reality is!
What is your answer_____________%

I will bet most of you Libs will not even be close!

Do you want to know what they will pay?
Scroll down for the answer!

Thanks Charlie for the numbers

Ahhhhhhhhhh first lets start with;

Federal Tax - single or married couples
average 25 to 28 % depending how much they make.

Fed Tax, O K lets use 25% = $12,500.00

Now Wis State tax 6.5% = $3250.00

Now S. Security tax 6.2% = $3100.00

Wait , Medicare tax is 2.9% = $1450.00

Thats 40.6% and you got it .

That equals, WOW = $20,300.00

Wait you Libs and Candy's, what if they buy something ,
a car,
a hot tub,
new furniture ,

Ok they spend $20,000.00 and pay , lets say
5% sales tax , that + $1000.00

Thats $21,300.00 just in taxes!!!!!!!!!!

Think About it ,
when you hear we need to tax the rich!
Who is rich? Taxes are just to high !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
