We know quite a few people with incomes significantly lower than ours -- and those poor people all seem to live a lot better than we do: better vacations, better cars, more gadgets.
America! What a country!
Come on folks, keep working...millions on welfare are depending on us.

I am seriously considering how I can “go Galt”. Both my wife and I now work and have good jobs, she can retire next year (I’ve got 5 more years). We have no debt. Why should I continue to work to feed the beast?
Here’s some quick math for ya.
Federal minimum wage times 40 hours a week comes to $16,120 a year.
Would you rather go to work everyday and earn that rather than sit home and garner more?
Few seem to want to talk about marginal effort, earnings, taxes, what-have-you, but that’s where the government has done a lot of damage.
