For what its worth, you’re more than welcome to redistribute some of your wealth to me. I make less than $25,000 a year and have at least $20,000 in student loan debt, and I’m not through with school yet. I have to take online courses that I can do in the evening after I get done with my full-time job.
I’m 33 and have to rent my home because its awfully difficult for a single woman with no credit (no credit cards or anything) to get a mortgage. I even had a banker tell me that if I had kids, it would be much easier because the gov’t would help me get a mortgage. How does this even make sense?
Punish me for not having children I can’t afford to take care of on my own?
I’ve never been on welfare, or unemployment. I’ve been working since I was 16 years old.
Btw, I’m not directing this to you, personally, nice woman with the glasses, but to all the ‘1%’ who claim to want redistribution of their wealth.
Do you *really* think its unfair? Do you *really* want to do something about it?
Pick someone at random, it doesn’t have to be me, send them a gift of money. I promise, they’ll be grateful. Or choose someone that you know, personally, and give them money. Do it anonymously, or not, it doesn’t matter how you do it, just that you do, and make sure the rest of the 1% that claim to want redistribution know you’re doing it. Don’t wait for the government to tax you into redistribution. If you really want it, like you claim, DO IT.
I’d love to own my own house, or even be able to have a safety net if I happen to lose my job or something else similar happens.
I was recently diagnosed with diabetes. I hope I don’t lose my health insurance. I’ve been without it before and its not a great feeling.
