Beware your first 2013 paycheck

That isn't true. They tax the first $113,700 you make at an additional 2% over last year, so if your first check happens to be $113,700 (like Davbrucas!) it all comes from there.

True I was averaging out. So eventually you will see an increase in your check by 6.2% when you hit 137,000

Those of you saying much more than 100/check are either making way over 250K, get paid monthly, or aren't lookin at increases in other things. The 2% increase caps at 113,700 which means a person paid biweekly would see no more than an $87.46 hit per check.

My check was $8000 short and I'm blaming it all on Obama. Quit trying to ruin my argument with logic, mathematics, and facts.

I hope all the welfare babies are happy, this is bullshit. Just powered some low life's Ophone and put money in thier pocket to buy drugs that should not be legal and guns that I soon will not be able to afford or purchase legally as a law abiding citizen.

This article has all kinds of neat charts showing the impact.

"Workers making $30,000 will take a bigger hit on their pay than those earning $500,000 under new fiscal deal"

Middle-class workers will take a bigger hit to their income proportionately than those earning between $200,000 and $500,000 under the new fiscal cliff deal, according to the nonpartisan Tax Policy Center.

Earners in the latter group will pay an average 1.3 percent more - or an additional $2,711 - in taxes this year, while workers making between $30,000 and $200,000 will see their paychecks shrink by as much as 1.7 percent - or up to $1,784 - the D.C.-based think tank reported.

Overall, nearly 80 percent of households will pay more money to the federal government as a result of the fiscal cliff deal.

Imagine what would have happened if they let the Bush tax cuts that were "just for the rich" expire!

If you are making $250k a year it should effect your paycheck by about $415 a month.

Now for DFWMs its going to be about $1660 a month for a majority of its members....




Damn, how much is your house payment, $400????

Maybe over the course of the year?

I DO know that $400 a month is a pretty decent car payment, and my accounts will notice the difference.
