     And this country was set up as a democracy meaning the good of the many outweighs the good of the few.

 

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democracy

The first principle is that all members of the society (citizens) have equal access to power and the second that all members (citizens) enjoy universally recognized freedoms and liberties

 

In a true democracy, the good of all outweigh the good of the many.

 

      Yeah universally recognized freedoms and liberties and the way this country has been in many ways it seems that only the wealthy have access to such things.  They can afford the best healthcare.  The best of everything really.  Far more than some guy making $15,000.00 a year trying to pay for company health insurance that won't even come close to paying for simple bloodtests or catscans or colonoscopies if they get sick.  Even though such things would only seem to be a drop in the water to someone making a million dollars a year.

    If a person making $250,000.00 a year gets $50,000.00 a year taken out for taxes and a person making $15,000.00 a year gets $5,000.00 a year taken out for taxes.  The first fellow still has $200,000.00 a year which is quite good while the other person has only $10,000.00 a year left over.  Now combine that with the formerly high cost of gasoline to drive a couple of hours to and from work each day (yeah, you once said a person could ride a bicycle to work, but you would ride a bicycle 50 miles down hills in the morning and 50 miles up hills after working all day in the evening to get to the closest town near where you live that has any jobs?), the cost of company health insurance which won't really cover the cost of the minor medical procedures that I've outlined above, and you'll see that such a situation is rather awful for the fellow making only $15,000.00 a year at their job in comparison to what it is for the fellow making the $250,000.00 a year.

 

 

When I met my girlfriend two years ago, she was two years out of college. She went to school on loans, as her parent didn’t make many. (She still is paying those loans).

She has the same healthcare I have, lived in a nice apartment (she lives with me now), drove a fairly nice car, ate well, paid all her bills, and was a happy person.

Her income was 34,000 a year.

In what warped version of American do you have to be rich to be happy?

 

What is keeping you from doing the same thing she did?

I will even help you.

How old are you?
What state/city do you live in?
If you are under 25, did your parents claim you, and if so, what do they make?
Did you graduate from High School?

Answer those questions, and I can point you in the direction of success.
