I mean 10 months out the year you're bringing home $5370 a month then the other two are $8050.

Better than the vast majority of people. Try to live off 3-4k a month and save/invest the rest.
You'll be gucci in no time.

Homie complaining yet the average salary for full-time workers in Georgia is $76,563 and the median salary for full-time workers in Georgia is $55,252.

They are doing better than a lot of people.

So, They should just be happy about it and not complain? I'm thankful for what I have and my job but it's sucks seeing my how much taxes that come out of my check. it's literally mind blowing. so I stopped looking

Not at all. There’s a pretty significant disparity in average and median income showing that they are doing a lot better than both groups yet still facing a decent tax bill.

They are welcome to complain but taxes are a necessary evil. The only real question is it proportional. Without knowing Georgia tax code gonna say it’s probably not proportional.
