There's a few traditional methods
1) Form a small, poor country and come a begging
2) Get a gun, ski mask, and use your imagination
3) Run for Congress, pays well and the hours are good
Look, I'm lucky and fall above this average, but I'd like more money so I don't think its fair that everyone is making this much when I have additional needs, I mean do they even need it all? There are over 120M American households, multiply that times $53K and that is a TON of money, what an unbelievable system!!!
All that money out there and I want more but cant get my hands on it. How do I vote for someone who will find a way to take money from them and give it to me?
3) Run for Congress, pays well and the hours are good
See, those require WORK, and I'm not willing to do that...lets try something else where I don't have to put in any effort.

Where do I get this communism you speak of? Will someone just give me that? It sounds complicated, not so sure about this.

You have enough money for a gun, a car AND a ski mask? We definitely need to talk about how much money you can give me, it sounds like you have a lot of extra that you are wasting on all of these things you are buying.

No one is going to give you much of anything unless you are broke and they need your vote. They take from you to give to them. Short of that, you are on your own. For all the bluster each side tosses up every couple of years, in the end it's more like rearranging furniture on the titanic. We may not have hit the iceberg yet but, you can sure see it from here.....ahem....
If you are above this mark, congratulations. Now you have to start to find ways to keep some of your money. Otherwise, Hillary and Sanders have some news for you. Don't feel bad though, they have some plans for everyone's cash although those they take it from may not see any benefits at all.
To be fair, the Republicans will take some of your cash too to shut up the inside left. People that might be traditionally slightly lower than you or the fading group of 53K a year....in the end, the Guvmint just costs too damn much. I think if we started reforming the federal pensions we could free up billions in taxpayer dollars....it's not like they could complain too much...especially when you told them that it was that or lose their guvmint jobs?
No, no one is going to throw you a life jacket and odds are you probably aren't going to drown with Kate Winslet holding on to you. More like Flo' from Waffle House with a cigarette hanging off one lip and a rolling pin in the other. What a life. Better get focused on how YOU are going to make YOUR money and HANG on to it. The rest is noise. Too many folks looking for the OTHER guy to provide for them. God knows, there are legions that won't work for it.
Brings up another thought. Why do we let so many in? If you try to walk across the border into Somalia, Iran, Iraq, Libya, Chad, Sudan, most of the rest of Africa, Soviet Union you might, at the very least, get shot. It's not like they rooooollllll out a red carpet, sign you up for benefits, start feeding, clothing, educating, and medicating you all with a politician screaming on live TV on your behalf. No, they probably just make you a statistic. And other than a few Jane Goodall types, no one pretty much gives a damn. But, here in America, turn away one kid named Juan and we are f'd. What's that all about?
While no one is advocating making our "guests" statistics...not at least that YOU know about, it does seem that stopping the tidal wave of those with hands out and signs in various languages saying "I might work for food but, it's bedduh if you just give to me, meet my familia and their offspring for chu my friend my friend"....
I mean, after all, you want more, right? How are we suppose to make sure you have a shot at more with all dem damn new moufs to feed?

What are you doing with yourself that you have so much free time on your hands where you can write all of that this afternoon? Lets work on getting you a job to use up some of this free time of yours. Once you start, how about we agree that you will give me 35% of your earnings? Sound good?

What exactly do you need? If I had just ONE $53,000 annual paycheck I would be set for life.
I'm impressed, $53K will get you by for the rest of your life? I hope I didn't miss the party, but either way happy 100th.
