So how can we change things so we aren't all totally farked?

Interesting. That was my bonus this year.

/more than willing to pay more taxes
//my bonus next year will be twice that
///USA! USA!

But remember, someone making $250,000 is barely getting by and can't afford a tax increase.

bah-dum-dum

You think so now. Maybe you will change your tune next year.
Just guessing.

Won't somebody please think of the millionaires? How can they POSSIBLY get by under their terrific hardship?

We fight them with our impotent internet rage!

No. Panhandlers make much more than that.

Ya but when you harmonize the statistical quirks the lines become parallel.

If you think that's bad;

GNI per capita in Saudi in 2009 was $17700.

Hmm, that's funny,

I'm well trained in what I do and I make $76 a year. Not your "1%" but I think I am taking care of my family just fine. Why haven't you figured out a way to not be a lazy sack of college waste and start working for a living?. My first job was at $5.15 an hour,... Give it a whirl! You might like what you find!

greenz: Hmm, that's funny,

I hate to break it to you, bro but I make that in a couple hours.

i sell myself on the streets of pensacola and make that much in TEN MINUTES

I have this thing called a ... "employment contract". Perhaps you've heard of such a thing? I know for most wingnuts - that is a difficult concept to grasp.

Raw_fishFood: So how can we change things so we aren't all totally farked?

Cut taxes on the wealthiest members of society, obviously.

Goes that include the groupon?

epileptics, geriatrics, and lepers get half price on Tuesdays. but don't spread that around, alright?

I think you accidentally stumbled onto an American website, and not the Chinese one you were looking for. I'm a bartender and I make exponentially more than $76 a year. I actually think my Netflix account is more than $76 a year now.

I can't wait for all the republicans to come in and explain how this is because poor people are lazy and all we need is more deregulation.

How farking out of touch can you be?

greenz: Hmm, that's funny,

Not everyone is qualified for the lucrative field of selling decimal points.

I'm ducking this and assuming you mean to reply to greenz, whom I can only assume sells pot for a living.

Communism! It worked for the Soviet Union, it will work for us!

Your contract has time limits? No? Good for you.
Sometimes here at FARK I have been called a conservative, when in fact I am very far left.
Solidarity, brother.
And I mean that.

Gobobo: If you think that's bad;

Tents cost a hell of a lot less than a house. Also, no grass to take care of.

You don't understand.

The EPA is run by assassins and ninjas that work day and night to sabotage small business owners.

Regulations are literally strangling job creators. Various pieces of legislation have manifested themselves into large hand-like apparitions (like the ones that yank Link out of the dungeon) and they float around strangling job creators.

Any contract without a limit is useless. All I can take from your comments is that your are a fark'n idiot.

Oh man, it's gonna be so much fun to watch the US fall apart. I'm guessing we'll see a civil war, maybe a coup or two, states seceding, Mexico and/or Canada and/or Russia invading ...

/not living in the US

But there are all of the wives and camels to feed, plus turbans to wash.

Kelbel: I make more than that and still not rich.

Do you own a refrigerator? Yes? Quit biatchin'!

I'm living in the US. I'm very far from tea party "2nd amendment solutions" territory, but I'm prepared to pop the cork on this biatch. I learned how to create explosives and use tactical firearms at a young age and I say "let's get it on"

But other places are worse, and so that statistic is totally meaningless, and everything is actually just fine.

And also it's Obama's fault.

you also have this thing called 'condescending dooshbag' and i suspect you have to be at the gym in 26 minutes.

While the average U.S income last year was $39,959, the mean income - the figure where half earn more and half earn less - was much lower, $26,364. This disparity reflects the fact that "the distribution of workers by wage level is highly skewed," according to Social Security. some people work part-time, and nobody makes $40K bagging groceries after school.

Don't look so surprised. In pretty much all developed countries, real wages adjusted for inflation hasn't increased for the lower and middle or even middle upper class for god knows how long. To simply put it, a 9 to 5 average Joe in the 60s were making the exact same money as the average Joe today. In the past whenever the economy grew, it was all just pretty much due to the 1% making more money. It's just that people didn't really noticed or cared until now because of the mini-depression and bailouts.

You know, Illegal contracts can't be upheld.

Well, I'm closer to the median than I thought. And that's not a good thing for the nation.

is this where i come to boast about how much i make? i make alsmost 26k a month.

/i have to be somewhere in 26 min

Raw_fishFood: So how can we change things so we aren't all totally farked?

Elect in filibuster proof majorities the kind of liberal Democrats who's policies built history's largest, wealthiest middle class from the 50's to the 90's.

How can people live on this?

I make 19 figures a year and I still have regular problems like anyone else. I can talk about it like it's no big deal and it's all true.

I'll probably make triple that next year.
