actually i may have been married to you. my ex wife used to go by a $300 pair of jeans for 1/3 off. then come home and tell me she saved me a hundred bucks. ......god i miss her

Say what you want, but as someone making about 25-30K yearly, my tax rate has gone down at least a couple of points this year. I think I could use the money more than some fucker in the top 5% of earners.

And the only investing I do at this point is in my growing. That shit pays itself back quicker than any other investment I can think of. I'll let my millionaire fiancee worry about how to invest money, I have no interest in the stuff beyond what I need to survive.

that means i will also have to belive in the tooth fairy, easter bunny, unicorns, and the yeti, because thats fucking crazy.

And when you can explain how sticking to our current system, the one that costs us more than any other wealthy nation in the world while letting our citizens go bankrupt and die in the streets is the better choice, I will see things your way.

That means I will be massively retarted, because THAT is fucking crazy.
