That is the problem with most of America.
They want to pattern their life, their ambition, their giving around the average.
The average american is so deeply in debt because of their "need" to have
-vs- their need to better their income first.
I do not want a president that is satisfied with average.
That is the great hope of the Democrat party.
Keep our base at average or below average.
If you are satisfied with Average than you vote for your candidate.
As for me and my kids.
I have a High School education and did not go to college.
I found what I am good at and made myself better.
I value relationship building and thus have turned in a very success sales career.
One that in the past 10 years, I have not seen a W2 less than 120K.
I share that in open forum, only because in 1998 I lost an average job.
Where I was making 44K.
My wife worked and she make 16K.
I lost my job and it was the best thing that ever happened to me.
I opened my front door and realized..... what do I want to do?
Now with all that change already haven taken place in my life.
The democrats will most likely take more of my money.
Between the years of 2004 and 2007.
I gave after ajusted gross income and tax returns.
155K to the federal gov in net taxes.
Not including my Social Security and Medicare taxes I paid.
If I had the 155K in my pocket today.
I Could pay off my home and 2 cars.
But to the 40% of people in this country who pay no taxes on their net income.
Here comes some more of my money....
I might as well add their names to the deed of my property.
