Doesn't that depend on whether your work covers health insurance or not?

My impression is that this can take a pretty big bite.

Well my work pays for my insurance but I still  need to shell out hundreds in the deductible every year before it kicks in.

Then throw in the thousands of dollars I am eventually going to have to spend on my kids' education.

This bit is rather ridiculous though as we all already knew that you can't afford to work at McD's and live in most of Manhattan.  Not that I disagree with what the article is saying as a whole.

If you work at a McDonalds on Manhattan I guess you have a long commute.

Well my sister paid rent to live in two places in bushwick, one for 600 and one for 500. Commute to my place (where there is a McD's) is about 30-40 minutes by subway.

2500$ or so. Utilities were averages to 100$ a month because I don't pay that on a monthly basis.

I really dont know, but my property taxes alone probably put me over the poll limit.

I suspect Malthus is also significantly under reporting his property taxes.

In several surveys, the overwhelming first choice for what makes Canada unique is multiculturalism. This, in a world collapsing into stupid, impoverishing hatreds, is the distinctly Canadian national project.

Your property taxes are over $6000 a month? :blink:

I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

The lower bracket, although I don't have a firm number. Definitely below the 1500 $/month range, though.

Our monthly bill just skyrocketed due to childcare costs. <_<

Oh yeah.  $1000.00 for that to.

DAMNIT I bet Zanza would get that for free to along with his tiny living expenses.  Stupid not-Germany Texas.
