Libertarian ideals are probably closest to the what our constitution stands for. I have some Libertarian in me, I think the way we look at is that government is there to protect our rights so we can go about our lives how we see fit while Democrats think government is there to provide their basic needs and then some. Republicans are a big mix from small government types to wanting as big of government as the left, just as authoritarian in different ways.

Your following post says you don't know shit about the constitution.
 
Negative $20/week thanks to increased insurance costs which are now closing in on 1.5x my house payment.

Damn homeys, $1150 home, $500 for health insurance, family of 4. Health insurance is thru my wife's employer, would be $1000/month thru mine...and the hmos are almost gone...nothing but shitty hsa's and high price ppo/hmo from my employer.

It's a global corp...

We used to have $40/week insurance through my wife's employer, an insurance brokerage. But now she stays home with the kids. I'm hoping when she goes back to work in a few years we will be back on awesome cheap insurance.

So yeah. It's actually a family member who works in places like singapore and south korea. They earn 500k+ a year and there are guys that they work with from countries such as thailand and the phillipines who are earning ~1700USD a day as well and they retire by the time they are 40.

Further more there are some guys over from HQ which is in europe over here at the moment and they cannot beleive how expensive everything is over here. We went out for a meal at a steakhouse and it cost ~250$ and they couldn't believe it. I was over there last year and we would go out for meals

OK so you had some dude come over from you fantasy HQ in Europe and are surprised at a 250 bill for a high end steak house bill? i am assuming 250 is per person. im pretty sure they didn't go to Texas Roadhouse, you can get a steak there for 20-25 bucks.

I lived in Europe for 4 years and i can tell you Europe is MUCH more expensive than the US.

If they did not know a high end steak joint would cost that much then they are morons or you are a liar. based on the other bullshit you posted in this thread, im leaning towards you being a liar.

It's the Rich Investor class beating the cash out of the middle class so well that we cut their taxes as a reward for a job well. We're even borrowing money from them to do it.

But it's all so worth it for a little extra jingle in my pocket now. Thanks, GOP! Thanks, Donald!
 
I'm at a net loss so far this year on my paycheck compared to last year. My withholding hasn't changed a penny as a result of my "tax cut" and my insurance premium is up 35% due to this administration's efforts to destabilize the nation's insurance markets.
 
my pay is going up so fast I cant tell where it is from last year. Im gonna stop buying things for the studio next year and clamp down on all of that though. No write offs no buying.
 
My taxes went up but my paycheck is the same.

What a rip off.

But to trump supporters, facts and reality does not ever matter. If a news item is negative to trump, it is always "fake" news.

Except its my life.
 
I have $5 less federal tax now. $10 per month. Great, that should cover the 10% additional health insurance increase in 2019....or not.

Guess I'm not the targeted white guy.

Well, it wasn't women, booze or movies. So Chuck Grassley approves.

10%? My health insurance DOUBLED this year 🙁

10% increase expected in 2019 on top of whatever increase already coming. This made possible by the Cons tax bill eliminating the individual mandate. If they can't repeal and replace, they'll just continue to torpedo until, at the expense of the middle class.

This increase is expected for singles making about 50k to families of 4 making 100k, again, this is simply additional to whatever increases would be coming.


And I'm with ya, health coverage is expensive as hell, it's like taking out another mortgage without owning anything at the end.
