And I also have to spend hours and hours researching marketing trends and securities so I can invest in the right market. So I can pay capital gains taxes of 65%.
This system is rewarding people for being lazy and unmotivated. Completely opposite of what made America great in the first place.

I remember being shocked in the early 2000's that working 100 hours a week, the later hours effectively paid less. I was like, if I worked retail, I'd be getting time and a half or double at that point.
