Run Hillary Run- bumper sticker thread

[Ceph]

My dad thinks its punishment - and he is helping to support (with our assitance too) two kids going to college on a little over 45K yearly....He's paying plenty of taxes, and like me (lol, I know parental raising has something to do with how you view the world).

Believe me, its pretty easy to get by on 20 and 30K.

Edit : oops, I was wrong, He makes closer to 4, sorry about that...it just gets taxed way down (house, FICA, Federal and State)....There are a few places in my area - mostly the county housing that I actually wouldnt have to much trouble surviving on a military paycheck...it is possible...just in the right places.

My Dad sent 5 kids to college (most of us took out Federal loans) on less than 12K a year. Believe me, a "gravedigger" didn't make much money in the 60's.

No-one "likes" paying taxes, but I am sure that the government didn't get rich off my Dad's paycheck. I am also sure that he was thankful that his "fair share" was a slightly less % than the CEO's of the Cemetery.
