Default Re: How much money do you need?

[ QUOTE ]

People are working 2 or 3 jobs to make ends meet, because employers don't pay as well as they used to and a lot of them look to find ways to reduce benefits and cut costs.

People are working multiple jobs and most families have 2 wage earners instead of just one because of today's tax burden. We are paying far more in taxes than we did back in the "good old days". I am not refering to income taxes as much as I am referring to every other tax that you hardly notice. Gasoline, utilities, phone, sales tax, RE taxes, etc. You wouldn't believe how much you pay in taxes for a pack of cigarettes or a gallon of gas. Or how much tax is built into any item you buy.

I must be an idiot to get involved in this discussion...
