bro...i haven't been to a library in over a decade

No one has

please tell me this is satire

PLEASE

if you're unrealistic sure

but we all know the two parties have a stranglehold on the presidency

democrats have given me an extra bill each month, and making it harder for small businesses to take care of their employees.

you help the poor by helping the rich. you dont punish them for achieving the american dream. you also dont reward them with excessive loopholes. dont tax them more just tax everyone equally

realistically you are upper middle class. democrats help you out. they dont help the dude who makes 20k a year out.

Understanding poverty, the middle class, and the upper class. According to the Census Bureau, 46.2 million people—about 15 percent of the U.S. population—currently live below the poverty line, or the income level needed to make a bare-essentials living in the United States. This figure depends on a number of factors, but is currently calculated to be an annual income of $23,050 for a family of four.

The next level of income is the middle class, a broad category that captures the vast majority of Americans. It's also controversial: Scholars and studies define sections of the middle class differently. But there are similarities between nearly all classifications.

The working class falls at the lowest end of the middle-class spectrum. These workers are employed in blue-collar industries or are paid by the hour. They typically have lower levels of education.

Next is the lower-middle class, which is primarily comprised of lower-level, white-collar workers. These workers typically have college educations, but lack the graduate degrees needed to advance to higher levels of employment. Income for these workers generally falls between $32,500 and $60,000.

Upper-middle-class workers typically have post-graduate degrees and work at high-level, white-collar positions. Household income for these workers is often above $100,000. According to the Census bureau, upper-middle-class, or professional class workers, earn enough to be in the top one-third of American incomes.

The next income level is what is commonly called the "5 percent," or the percentage of Americans who make more than $150,000 annually. At the top of the economic ladder is the so-called "1 percent," or households that earn more than $250,000 annually.

you're on to something

not trying to nitpick, genuinely confused but what I got from this was

democrats help the rich by not helping the rich which doesn't help the poor?

I ain't even gonna lie, this is all I can think about now since I read it. I've always had a dream to invent a new cereal.

we need a thread for this rt.

oh and I got rep for whoever dropped that Hulkster tag, it ripped my whole mustache off my face.

The Hogan tag deserves rep

I think uh oh is saying everyone should vote republican

Rand paul ftw

this is so stupidly fucking backwards i can't even

WOW

MIDDLE AMERICA, EVERYONE

hogan tag get this rep

I think Uh Oh is looking at it from the perspective of an enterprising small business owner AND a blue collar employee. So he's confused bc he likes the idea of raising the minimum wage but doesn't like what it would mean for him as a small business employer.

@uh oh you own a small business right?

uh-oh makes me sad for the next generation, which I have decided began in 1988 because I want no part of it.

Lol

i'm pretty much the cutoff for the extremist end of genx. i don't think 88 will separate you from the millennials if that's the case.

1980-1984 or so is a lost generation. we grew up with both the commies trying to kill us and the arabs trying to kill us. what a difference those two worlds are.

half our lives without "technology" but the latter portion we were young enough to adopt all the new things.

weird.

oh my god

uh oh and I are the same generation?

hogan and hulkster tag checking in

aero this is a good post. This board is a last refuge for people like bags, hush, and big baby who are really poor nobodies and lie themselves to sleep at night. I mean jeez, at least get a hobby because your writing is of dubious quality. Hush bags = 5th tier fabolous on a message board with 7 groupies then act like they're cool bc insecurity. Meanwhile Fab has millions of groupies and millions of dollars yet doesn't flaunt his net worth.

Tbh tho chase meaning not money. If writing is ur thing even if you're bad at it like the above mentioned j start blogs and find a way to generate revenue. Where there's a will there's a way
