Decided to go turtle mode and duck on some calls until next Wednesday.
Planning on bringing a big bag of I told you so next time I get back.
Transplanted CA people, even the so called conservatives, are simply insufferable. Not today. I can't. I won't.
The sky is not falling.
Nothing is worth listening to any more of this. "Oh no, they'll never let him do any of this/what about the Russians / nothing ever changes." Man, shut the fuck up.
Abolish the IRS day one. Please. If I could open our next conversation with that little gem of "did you hear" it would be sweet.
Something big. Just sayin.
Been praying for the income tax to GO the fuck AWAY!! I cannot find a job to save my life and it'd be a 20k raise for my husband. Sick of being broke as fuck when he makes over 100k.
How is his 100k not also yours?
If that's the attitude -- then a wife should be compensated as a chef, house cleaner, nanny, personal shopper, nurse, etc.
Dearest sir -- you could NOT afford the services a "wife" provides for free at the current market rate. Never think a "wife" doesn't "work" at home. Your job is an 8 hour day. Hers is 24/7.
Your apparent lack of understanding of what a "marriage" entails tells me that you have had little success with the institution. Your lack of awareness is appalling.
In the 45+ years that I have been married, my husband has NEVER made the claim that his income is his alone. That is because he is a wonderful man who understands the value of the "home" I provided for him and our children.
Shame on you if you have treated your wife as someone who is undeserving for all she does for your family!
Thanks for accusing me of not understanding bc I do. My point was, which I did not express very well apparently, was that it's very hard in him even making that.8 years ago, we'd have homeschooled our children and not worried about a thing w me not working. So now I feel awful that it's hard for me to find jobs despite going to "college" and working pretty much up until now. It shouldn't be this way. But anyways, thanks fren, but I do "understand". Maybe u dont
