I'm right there with you. My luck came a bit later in life, so I had 10 working years of income tax actually paid close to 0% as I made little and had huge student loan debt from an attempt to get a degree.
I finished the degree and 10 yrs into a well compensated career and I'll gladly pay thousands to the government. The wealthy people that complain about paying their share have zero perspective. They're basically spoiled brats.
I've also lived in a state with lower taxes, and now one with higher taxes. You get what you pay for. I hear people everywhere complain about the roads where they live. Not everyone has had to replace whole wheels due to the stuff that some places are calling roads. Again, zero perspective if you don't get out and see the world at least a little.
That is a real shame. All these people are choosing to be poor. The real trick of this whole thing is you need to be independently wealthy for it to work for you. If only these folks understood that, they might choose differently.
Maybe they could replace that with a noose that comes down next to the oxygen. Then, if you get claustrophobic, you get off the plane any time you want.
I am a card carrying member. I think I have sincerely held religious beliefs that some court cases should be protecting right now. I know small comfort, but it's better than nothing.
I agree, but I'm gonna watch entertaining videos with information I find useful. I'm not watching this, or reading the news, to try and convince a Trumper to change their mind. I have a family of my own to keep safe. They can worry about themselves.
We kill racists and fascists! In fact Europe had to have us come kill theirs too! We had to practice on our own, that's why we're good at it, and why we will always have to do it again every so often.
It takes everything they've got to keep the little bit of control on the country they think they have. All it takes for them to lose it, is 3.5% of us to step up. That's why you can't find any reporting on the protests and town halls here. We're past critical mass, it just needs to hit home. People are organizing. Its coming.
I had to check in at the door at my reps town hall in nys.. There was a list of folks that rsvp. I got the invite by email, so I bet it's based on voter registration, and if you walk up at aren't registered R, no dice.
