The argument that “I got 150 bucks this year and I’m expecting 175 next year but you’re only giving me 160” less than you were hoping to get extra is a cut.


Did you leave out a “not” somewhere?

That was not the most understandable writing I’ve ever done. There are some grammar police on this thread already. Maybe they’ll straighten me out. :>)

Basically, if you got 150 in 2017 and were told your were getting 175 in 2018, but then that was revised to 160 does not mean you have taken a cut. You’ve actually had a 10 dollar increase. But the left calls it a cut.

And I’m not even sure if that paragraph is clear. Lol. Send me back to writing class.....
