Yanno... maybe government ought to outlaw pay-stubs (you know, the little slips explaining where your earned money went). We always look at the "gross income", then at "net income" and get all worked up over the difference. My 'net' is about 45% of my 'gross' - I just have to remind myself that although the Boss says he's paying me $30 per hour, I'm really only getting about $14.

Would I rather be blissfully ignorant, or informed and ticked off over something I can't control?
