I am slowly starting to realize that only the middle class pays taxes in the United States The big problem in this country is that the middle class continues to shrink and considering our countries deficit we will not be able to sustain ourselves much longer. Let me elaborate why they end up paying most of the taxes.
As fair warning some of the things being said in this article may offend quite a few people, so if you disagree feel free to comment.

This is driving me nuts, I want to get some damn miracle fruit and I can’t seem to find any place that has them. The few places I did find have 2 to 4 months back order. If you buy the seeds you might not see the fruit for one to two years. Miracle fruit is freaking impossible to get.
Damn WSJ and NYTimes coming out with those stupid articles. I just learned of them a week ago, and now that its mainstream getting your hands on miracle fruit is damn near impossible.
If you know where to get miracle fruit seeds please leave a comment for all to see.

When I got to San Francisco I decided I needed a mattress since the blow up bed was giving me back problems. I went to Mattress Discounters in San Francisco to check out their selection. The lady seemed to give me a good deal, but made me get a line of credit to pay off the bed. I had enough money but the lady talked me out of it. She said that was the only way she could give me a discount.
Now let me be clear at that point I did not understand how affiliate marketing and the like work. But what this lady at Mattress Discounters pulled was ridiculous now that I know what really went down. She basically made me sign up for the worst credit card to pay off the bed. She positioned it as financing for the bed, but really it was just a straight up credit card offer which had a balance on from the bed.
In the affiliate world you can make almost $150 dollars a sign up for credit cards. So the discount she gave me didn’t even cover the amount of money she probably made on the back end for signing me up for the stupid CitiFinancial Retail Services card. Granted it was 0% for 9 months but the crap they pulled after infuriated me.
