"Why doesn't this 23 year old working 60 hour weeks understand that getting taxed progressively (and therefore paying more taxes) is actually a good thing???"

I'm confused… isn't this just progressive tax? Like if she was making the same (total) compensation at one job instead of two, she'd pay the same tax. So what she's arguing for is that she should pay less tax because she's working two jobs to get the same level of income, instead of one?
Yea and it fricks over poorcels to the point many will only take other jobs if paid in cash.
Feels kind of unreal to read about someone that has to work 60 hour weeks to make ends meet advocate against progressive tax rates.
Yea cuz like why wood u not like paying lots of tax?
!leafs why are our country men such smug pricks?

Not sure where the confusion is tbh. If she was working one job and getting paid as much as these two jobs, she'd have 24-20 hours extra a week and wouldn't want to
.
Does this redditard not get that she can't afford to live on one full-time job because Canada is an expensive shithole where labour is downvalued because of suicidal immigration and that subsequently getting taxed out your butthole when you try to get a second job to make ends meet is a problem?
Progressive tax rates are fine when their calibrated to not create working poor.
