[quote:Anonymous Coward 23182060:MV8yMDA0MTc0XzMzNjgxNzI1X0UwRDVEOEIw] [quote:farmer general 19557762:MV8yMDA0MTc0XzMzNjc3MTE1XzY4NEUzRkND] I didn't see anyone do the math. So I'll do it. I have 6 in my family and will base it where i live. I go lowest income level because employers lie when it comes to overtime..its either a short 6 month burst of it and then back to regular hours in my 35 years of experience so we will go with MY numbers 12 an hour 40 hours a week. 12x40=480.00 480x4=1920.00 1920x12=23,040 with all the withholding's it calculates for my family to be 441.40 bring home each week. so in reality with no overtime it is [b]21,187.20[/b] [b]Per Month[/b] Rent for my family would be 600.00 Gas would be 35.00 a week x 4=140.00 if job was 15 miles from my house. Electricity is 140.00 Water 80.00 sewage 20.00 ( yeah i pay sewage) insurance is 80.00 for car. Food each week would be minimum 80.00 Heat (propane) 100.00 a month. phone 100.00 garbage 12.00 Total is $1,352.00 on average per month. 1765.60-1352.00=413.60 [b]So $413.60 is what you would have left over every month. Lucky guy would have about 100.00 a week left over. Doable but just above poverty for a family wage. [/b] I would not want to live on that shit unless i was single. [/quote] You forgot beer, baindaids and smokes. [quote:Anonymous Coward 22721310:MV8yMDA0MTc0XzMzNjc5ODI3XzQyNjM0MTlG] And to the guy complaining that a 12 dollar an hour job isn't enough to provide for a family... no fucking shit, idiot. Maybe you shouldn't have had kids if the only thing you can do is unskilled labor. [/quote] I despise fwads like this. What happened to respect and dignity for the working class man that just wants to go to work everyday and take care of his or others needs?? According to your fucked up mode of thinking the working class man is a low life nitwit peice of shit not deserving or worthy of a loving family and a place in society?? I need not say more. [/quote]
