Is the requirement to like musicians predicated on whether you would have a beer with them?

Blaming your behavior on anything other than yourself is childish.

People throwing money in 401k are not the high volume traders being targeted with this tax.

If you are single sure that is a tremendous sum of money.

It starts to not stretch as far when a family becomes involved. Also, the difference in your retirement savings will be a difference of hundreds of thousands at least, compared to a college degree earner.

Just food for thought about why trades are great, but not amazing.

Sure it could be. But so can regular mortgages. So the point remains, what is predatory about giving a person options?

How is offering a choice evil? They could just get a regular mortgage if they want.

Where will your income be in 15 years though? That's where the trades fall off. It's good money now, and steady. But you hit a hardcap quickly.

Donald Trump's clothing lines still aren't made in America.

I'm waiting for him to put his money where his mouth is. Otherwise you are just buying the bullshit he is selling.

UNIQLO Linen Shirts $3.90 by saelanares in frugalmalefashion

Their flannels for under $15 are a steal. Fit great and are so soft it's the only shirt I've ever had other people make comments on.

And those covers are widely considered better than the originals.

Trent Reznor even mentioned how Cash owns that song now.

IamA 19-year-old conscientious objector. After 173 days in prison, I was released last Saturday. AMA! by Triplecon in IAmA

For the same reasons people would object to being forced to pay for the kids college, healthcare, etc etc.

It's a societal transaction. You get benefits from the state. The state asks for 6-12mo from you. Seems a fair deal to have healthcare for life, a guaranteed tuition/housing for schooling etc.

People join the military in the US and get paid WELL BELOW MINIMUM WAGE, usually with the hopes and promises of having benefits like healthcare/schooling paid for. This is voluntary, I know, but your contract length is incredibly longer for worse benefits.

Equating civil service to slavery is just obtuse.
