My oldest boy is 17 and is at high school, taking college full time and working part time at Winn Dixie.

Couple of weeks ago he got his first pay check , though minimum wage is still a lot for hm. he was excited to get his first pay check and opened it.

He opened it and just stared and then said” Dad they took over $20 off me and I don’t know what for”

I laughed and said “ yep wait till you get a full time job and they will take more”

He said it was robbery.

Now he knows how we feel most of our lives.

So true. That first paycheck is a real eye opener. I like the idea of a flat tax, but the percentage needs to be lower than what I’ve heard proposed so far. Only the arrogance of government would ask more than God does.

Yes sir. And, also why so many of our fellow Americans don’t get it! and will continue to vote for any democrat/communist that runs, regardless of how slimy/corrupt she is.

Most Americans cannot understand what your son experienced.
