[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most people are living paycheck-to-paycheck. I know I am. I make $85,000/year but I take home $59,950 AFTER TAXES and Social Security. So I am struggling to get by. I have over $30,000 in student loans and I live with 4 roommates. Even if I were making 6 figures, I'd get killed in taxes.

My income bracket is like the top 30 percent for a single male, which is incredibly sad. I know lots of folks my age struggling to find good employment. Employers are taking advantage of the poor economy by creating "internships" that pay peanuts and "part-time gigs" so as to avoid paying for healthcare.

I mean, most of the jobs created now are Uber jobs and Amazon warehouse jobs. Not exactly the type of jobs needed to make a living. And if you "get educated" and "learn skills", you will still get penalized during TAX SEASON!

So I get why folks voted Trump. The economy sucks. Hillary didn't offer any solutions to fix the economy. Trump made his campaign specifically about JOBS! JOBS! JOBS! I completely understand why people fell for this mad man. Yes, he's a mad man and a moron but the economy has improved and stock market is up... so I am rethinking  my opinion about him.[/quote]

Wow you make a ton more money than my brother who cobbles together a living from several part-time jobs.  He hates Trump and all his crooked billionaire cabinet members who are out to plunder America to enrich themselves more.[/quote]
