So to make it simple with made up numbers, say you're making $99,999 and the tax for that bracket is 20%, but you get a raise to $100,000 that bumps you into the next bracket and that bracket taxes at 30%. They now think that all of that money gets taxed at 30%. They don't understand the US income tax is progressive.
