LEFTISTS ruin everything. Liberals don’t exist. They used to, and they would mostly agree with us. If you aren’t right of center, you are today either a leftist or a Gullible.
And I am not letting leftists use Satan to get them off the hook. They chose evil; it’s down to them.
Well, there’s wages by the hour, by the job/picework, and then there’s lump sum payments and pensions after the divorce. The latter are well established. These people just want to front load the benefits. /S
Fine.
Then the women can pay the husbands for the yard work, the work on the cars, and other maintenance that she’d have to hire out or do herself is she was single.
This is a shockingly stupid idea in all respects:
- Should we write daily checks to each other, or do we keep a daily tally to settle at the end of each week, according to this moron?
- My wife does somewhat more housecleaning than I do. I do more cooking, yard work, and home/car repairs. How do we balance those out?
- Do I get a stipend for being on call in a home-defense role, or do I get a larger lump sum for those times when that role has gone active?
- What about the going rate for the world’s oldest profession? What is the diplomatic approach to negotiating that compensation, and is it decided in advance or after the fact? And do we each pay the other, or is that payment only one-way?
My wife says I do twice as much work as her, which is completely silly. In reality, she does twice as much as I do. How do we allow for the fact that in relative terms she dislikes my chores more than I do, while I dislike her chores more than she does, so that we both feel like winners? What about the fact that I get all the stinky/risky/dangerous jobs? What about the fact that she gets the most routine and least interesting jobs?
Final detail: We have shared accounts. Should we each be writing the other daily checks from our joint account to be deposited back into that account?
Hubby and I share what housework we do. He does laundry and so do I. If it needs done it’s whoever does it first. No fighting. We take turns cooking dinner. We both load /unload the dishwasher. We have a housekeeeper, a gardener, and a pool guy so whatever’s left we just do when it needs done.
I gave up going to the grocery store because we both hate it. Vons delivers our main groceries and I supplement with Schwans. I do a monthly hard goods, paper towels, toilet paper, febreze, coffee, etc., order from Walmart.
We got this! Lol. Leaves me a lot of time to do exactly what I want.
The picture in my mind of a semi-annual performance review is making me laugh: "Now, Dear, we'll review your Bedroom Performance." Man walks out five minutes later with a black eye.
Yeah, that'll go over really well. :-)
I have been saying for years that politicians fully embraced the feminist movement because it pushed women into the work force where they could be taxed.
Once there were two incomes it was relatively easy for those same politicians to increase taxes since they was more money within the individual households. Now the taxes are so high most men cannot be the sole bread winner because of those enormous taxes, and the wife must work just to make ends meet.
If you look at it politicians actually enslaved the American housewife, forcing her to work outside the home whether she wanted to or not.
My handyman services are a lot higher hourly than nanny or maid services. Has she paid a plumber or electrician lately. I am also 24/7 on prem security. This type of insanity is why a lot of gals cannot find a husband, and no, a real man won’t put up with this bs.
Thanks - you’re absolutely right. There were all of these women doing all of this work that was not being taxed. It’s not just her new outside work that is being taxed. There are also all of the additional taxes for products and services like child care, pre-prepared food, dry cleaning/laundry services, etc. that the 2-income household incurs.
And, still they want more.
The solution is to repeal the 16th Amendment and eliminate all income taxes. About half of what the government does is unconstitutional anyway, and they only get half of their revenue from income tax.
Kills 2 birds with one stone ;)
