So now you are better off making 310k than 311k, is that much better? It doesn't matter how you read it you still get that effect.

You make it sound like a problem, but if you can make 311k, I'd say it shouldn't too hard to make 310k instead if that's better for you? Unless some companies have minimum salaries that high?

No at 310k you get $1 dollar at 311k you get $0. But you know like you have 999 more dollars than before. Assuming Post tax income.

These subsidies can be implemented in a way where they taper off instead of imposing a hard cliff.
