I work blue collar, and lots of us are hopeful he will do the tax free overtime. I think he was just saying that, and I didn't vote for him, but that would be game changer.

Would it be a game changer? It means you can do overtime without being taxed for it, right? Or maybe less taxed.

That sounds like a quick and dirty way to exhaust the population even more in order to keep the bread and circus going on.

So you got the folks working 60-100 hours a week then because it makes them a lot more money, so they are just slaving their life away. Wouldn't a better fix be raising minimum wages?

Smart workers then get contracts that specify anything over two hours a week is overtime.
