Keep in mind my response may have things added, as I verify and look into what you said, but here it is:

1: The Supreme Court is dominated by Republican Justices, which, if you take Trump's stance about judges being corrupt and bla bla bla, that also applies for his judges - and Trump never accepted the election loss, so the abortion right removal technically happened in his presidency.

2: I never did imply that abortion has anything to do with DOGE, I separated those two things with something called a comma (which you haven't used at all - oh, that explains it!). Medicare and Medicaid are, however, likely going to be cut off to save those juicy $1T to then give more money to the wealthy.

3: The rights being removed are not all by DOGE, but all are tied to the Trump administration, which does include DOGE.

This is officially rambling territory, but did you that if 99.99% of Elon Musk's money (assuming he has between 300 and 400 billion dollars) was evenly split between every US citizen, everyone in the US would get 1000+ dollars, and Elon Musk would still have 30-40 million?

Even if he just lost 99.8% of his money, he'd have an enormous amount of wealth ($800M), and the US citizens would still get a lot of money? Do that but 6 times (to count for every billionaire, making each keep $800M), and uni-statians would get $5K each!

P.S. Poverty only happens because the wealthy want to subjugate the working class, and make rebels not make it through.

The right for abortion, healthcare (by the DOGE bullshit), among other rights.

Yeah. I personally think that a mathematical curve would address that.

Hmm, you are right. But this is not knowledge that is taught to us. So, the main problem is politicians limiting the information given, no?

Thanks for the explanation, but keep in mind that this is not only about the US. I am Portuguese, and this is a problem here, AFAIK. Nonetheless, this would simplify the tax calculation.

 

As the title goes. This would involve turning the tax levels / brackets into an exponential mathematical curve. One of the benefits off of the top of my head, is that people wouldn't be scared of their salary increasing just enough, to actually lower their clean income. Another one would be that you can lower even further the tax rate for middle / low class, because you (the government) would receive more from taxes. Any opinions/ideas for this?

 

As the title goes - I think it's a good solution for some of the Western World's problems, like politicians not following their campaign promises. On the other hand, conflicting politics are a big possibility, which would create further problems. Any ideas?
