"And uhh... $15 out of $3900/month income is still huge as well? Because i bet a lot of people on here wished they made that much. Same math." Right but you can buy a pound of meat for 2 dollars the problem is, food prices don't scale back. How much of your income do you spend on food % compare it to how much an average Russian spends? Is 22,500 out of 5850000 a lot or a little? Money doesn't scale between countries. Plus THERE is diminishing marginal utility.
I am getting tired of the government trying to take away our rights. Then again, nothing has changed; it has always been this way. I hate using tired clichés but; power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
