Tell you what, though...if you know of some place where I could make a dime peddling tomatoes to people feel free to speak up...because that would be fantastic, lol. That's the sort of thing that rural america needs right now....but, as far as anyone's aware, complete and utter fantasy.
I'm a "consultant" well dug in to local, state and federal government. In the winter...I sometimes pull part time hours managing them as a production supervisor - because I have a higher level of education/experience and come from a more demanding industry (DOD contract manufacturing). I have the chops and contacts (nepotism ftw) to come and go as I please and set my own terms. They, on the other hand, are prisoners of their own relatively fortunate situations.
To make it relatable...you know those guys you see putting mosquito traps on ditches and taking samples from your watershed runoff and quantifying game fish pops in local waterways? That's me. GOV work
(NRCS, EPA, RCDC)
I operate a very small farm with a very specific clientele (predominantly the state).

So according to your own post, the majority of your work life has been spent feeding off income tax at some level (state/fed). You have produced nothing towards the GDP until you began peddling tomatos to your wifes underlings.
Bravo I suppose...
Quote:Again, you claim to know what these underlings for your wife pay in taxes each year vs what they expect to pay under the new tax rates, but I straight up don't believe you are correct and became dismissive of your output at that point. You have not seen their tax returns so you really don't know what you are claiming.Chortles...I'll let you try and work out how a person who employs another person might know what they claim on their taxes......I'm sure it'll come to you.
Quote:And so far, Trumps plans have worked out well for me. It doesn't bother me that its worked out well for people with more than I have. It doesn't bother me that you have benefited."Fuck you got mine"..well, good for you. Like I said, works out great for me too..doesn't change that it doesn't work out great for the people around me, now does it? You asked a question, I gave you a fn answer. It;s not my problem if that answer gives you the meatsweats for not conforming to your hilarious trickle down fantasies.

Thanks mom.
