Most of the employees in my hometown make minimum wage over the table, and then get paid in cash under the table. I know this because many of them are my friends, and I am an accountant, and they talk to me about it. On paper, they make $350 a week. Then their bosses hand them $500-$2000 per week in cash. It’s not taxed AND the employees still qualify for federal benefits, since it looks like they are living below the poverty line. Their children get free lunch at school, the get “Earned Income Credit” on their taxes, and qualify for HUD loans. All the while paying for everything in cash so it’s hard to trace.

This is why federal programs don’t work – EVERYONE tries to game the system, and it’s impossible to enforce the rules. You’d have to hire millions of accountants to find all of the places people hide money.

And honestly, I don’t blame them. The less taxes we pay, the better. I even have bartering arrangements worked out with some people to avoid taxes.

I f****** hate you (bf) , you f****** manipulative,hypocrite, emotionally abusive, vaping, life draining, wannabe player b******. I.HATE YOU. I still deeply resent you. This is why everyone thinks you’re an a****** at your job. You’re not some anti-hero that you claimed to be. No- You’re just an a******. Point blank . Especially to me of all people! You always take it out on me, and you still wonder why I won’t touch you like that or shut down completely with you. Everytime you sense or feel even an inch that im happy, peaceful, something I enjoy doing you immediately smash that down so you can feel better and have power over me. What’s funny is that every time you’re in the wrong, overstep your boundaries, make me really upset or talk crap to me – karma smacks you right in the face everytime & you don’t even realize it. Funny how you’ve said yourself that people spit at the sky just for it to come back-yet you’ve done the exact same thing too – you’re not godlike or safe from getting karma, even I’ve dealt with karma too when I was in the wrong many times too. So no- you’re not a misunderstood dark knight turn bad like the joker you claim to be. You’re just an egotistical bigoted jerk & everyone can see that except you. I hate myself that I fell for your facade – lovebomb trap years ago . And all the times that you’ve talked crap about other’s appearances, especially women’s, karma yet again smacked you in the face & put on a ton of weight and still wonder why you haven’t lost pounds but still continue on demanding me to cook & make you even more food despite you complaining about it , hmmmm , gee I wonder why. Anyways , glad to vent that out .
