This Chart Shows What Your Paycheck Will Look Like Under Bernie Sanders’ Tax Plan

Democratic 2016 presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders‘ tax plan has been talked about by everyone in the country, but as he gains traction in the polls it’s time to start wondering: “What would it mean for my paycheck?”
