I am outraged!

$85,000 PER FAMILY is in the top 20 percentile? Why am I bothering to go to college? Why am I taking out loans of $30,000 and why am I working 50 hours a week?

Only to get half of what a family in the top 20% are making? This is peanuts!

Can someone give me one good reason on why my husband and I shouldn't quit our jobs and sit home? Just one? I WORK MY ASS OFF TO MAKE IT WITHOUT A HANDOUT - EVER- and George Voinivich tells me I can't have my money back??

Mabelkitty--
I share your frustration!! There are quite a few days when you wonder what you do it all for---- for instance your next door neighbors, who have claimed bankruptcy, pull up with a new vehicle, or some other new toys day after day, and we are driving used vehicles, living in an older home, because we are HONEST, HARDWORKING AMERICANS!
