THE QUESTION IS YOU, NOT YOUR PARENTS.

From Porce's sig:



The answer for me is Obama, so I'm voting for him. The tax rate for anyone richer than me is something I will never ever care about and I'll never have any sympathy for anyone making more money than me in financial matters.

I'm ignoring the first part, as most posters will.  A vast majority of us do not have a salary and are still entirely dependent parts of our families.

I don't have a salary either, I get paid hourly. Yet I am not dependent on my family.

And "vast" majority? I doubt it.

We've already determined the average age to be below 20 by all those age polls.  We've also determined the forum to be consisting of very few, if any, people who are not attending, did not attend, or do not plan to attend college.  How many college aged males do you know of with a steady pay amounting to anything worth noting while not claiming to be dependent on their parents (officially through taxes or unofficially)?

Plenty. A good number of people at my job fall into this category.

No. My point though being it's not unusual.

Whatever the case, it's amusing when people dependent on their parents call someone not dependent on their parents (me) immature.

As far as I'm concerned, Obama's will as I only make 30k or so off of investments. As for my family, McCain for sure.

I also love how BRTD doesn't seem to want to aspire to make any more money than the meager wages he brings home right now.

If I were making $100k, it'd still be Obama, and that's not meager. It's also more money than I could possibly spend, since I'll never do anything like buy a big house in the suburbs and no matter what would always have an apartment in the inner city.

That's fine I guess if you have no aspirations to get married, have a family etc. If you just want to live in the inner city slums with low income people all around you then you're fine.

You mean no older married couples live in Minneapolis? News to me. I guess all those couples at my district caucus and convention must've been from way out in the suburbs who for some reason decided to drive all the way in and fake residency in the area...
