Nobody forced this couple to live in the most expensive area in the country and they want the rest of us to subsidize their decision with a “cost of living” factor.
And I have to believe they would say that the student loans were a good investment so that they could be earning at their current rate in their 20s. No sympathy from me.
Yeah, they ought to move out of New York and loose their jobs and get food stamps like all the rest. /s
Cost of living is also VERY high in Alaska, gotta ship everything in, But Im here because I can get a job. Lots of people don't want to work 12 hour days / 7 days a week in 30 degree below zero temps hundreds of miles from a road.
Job is good... You take it where you can get it.
Someone needs to tell these constitutional illiterates that there is an annoying provision in Article One that taxes must be uniform throughout the several states. Therefore a cost of living adjustment is unconstitutional. Senator Chuckie Cheese also needs to relearn this fact as he constanttly calls for the cost of living adjustment.
