What is enough for one may not be enough for another. Who are you to tell somebody how much they can work for? What is wrong with you people? Maybe if you ever worked you would know one reaps their own rewards and doesn't rely on others to hand it out like the governement does. Go get Obama to steal some more money for you. I'll be at the casino later gambling mine that I EARNED.
Look in the dictionary for the words American Capitalism and you will probably see GREED in huge letters.
I earn every penny that i can to support myself and my family and do very nicely but i do NOT need to do it at the expense of the less fortunate and the well being of America...... Oh but then i'm not a self rightous greedy "fat cat" who gets rich by walking over other peoples bones.
You think three kids cost a thousand bucks a month? Maybe in food. Get real or get out of the conversation. So in your little budgeting world one comes home from work and sits around and stares at the all all day? Gimme a friggen break. I guess one isn't supposed to enjoy life a bit in your eyes. Well bub THAT infringes on MY LIBERTY and MY PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS which you cannot do. Move to China.
I know people with 3 kids living on 50K before taxes. You're the one that needs to get real. If you think its tough to raise a family on 175K after taxes you need to get out more. Furthermore if you are spending 1000 a month on just your kids food you probably have a budgeting problem.

Well I looked it up and here's what I got.........Appears your wrong. So now anybody who works and makes more money than somebody else is doing it at the expense of others and hurting the well being of America?? Do you read the nonsense before you hit submit?
And to top it off they're walking over other peoples bones? This is what you think of a doctor or a small business owner? What is wrong with you?

So do I? What's your point? I get out plenty. I like to provide things for my kids other than food. Some here think I should stay home and stare at the all and give them my money though. How bout you? You doing your part slipping hundred dollar bills under your neighbors doors? You want to make more than 50K a year get busy. Its there just stop sitting around whining about it and expecting others to hand it to you. I never did. I wanted to be where they were and did it by hard work.

I have never had any problems providing for myself and just for the record I work plenty hard thank you very much. What I find ridiculous is people making 250K a year screaming poverty. My parents never made anywhere near that yet they were always able to get along just find and provide everything we needed. They even bought a second home to boot with no debt.
Quite frankly if you think that 175K after taxes is anything but rich, let alone anything close to middle class you do need to get out more and if you think its tough to make it on 175k after taxes you do indeed have a budgeting problem.

I work and make more money but i pay my FULL tax.... Ask companies like GE if they paid full tax last year or any tax. That IS at the expense of other people..... simple.
And to top it off they're walking over other peoples bones? This is what you think of a doctor or a small business owner? What is wrong with you?
Anyone, including a Doctor.... who by the way, many of them ask the Insurance companies for quaudruple the amount for proceedures than they do cash payers, are indeed walking over other peoples bones to simply get rich as we then have to pay huge premiums for healthcare to compensate for Doctors excessive bills to the insurance companies.

You can read then.... whooop de whooop. If you took what i said literally then you need to understand what was meant by my remark.

Ha ha looks like you got a cheerleader. Who is crying poverty? Not me or anybody else. Your screaming "steal their money and give it to me" which is what folks don't like. I already said I get out plenty. Crap table calling for me right now. I think I'll go buy the kids some goodies too with the money I EARNED. And guess what I'm not gonna give any to the bums along the road like I usually do because of you so you can go to sleep knowing some bum is hungry and its your fault. Maybe I'll hand em an IOU from randomstudent. Of course you'll have to steal somebody elses money to pay that IOU first so I'll tell him not to hold his breath.

Your the fool who thought that the definition of capitalism is greed not me. I'm just pointing out your wrong. If you can't handle it sorry. Go picket at the capital for all I care.

As said earlier.... you really need to get out more
