[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Feeling middle class when making $400K a year because you save for retirement, college, spent thousands on daycare, and live in an overpriced shit shack does not make you middle class. You have saved and consumed in a way that true middle class people cannot. How do you people think the vast majority of people who make the average income or less in this area survive?[/quote] This is very sad, though, because retirement, college, and day care are the main expenses and all exemplify our lack of social safety net. In other countries people don’t have to save for them all so individually. Yes taxes are higher, but since defense spending is less (and single payer health care is WAY more administratively efficient), they are not proportionately higher.[/quote]
