Maybe you need to move up here. My taxes are about the same, my healthcare costs are about the same and I have had nice raises...oh and i also work another job on the side so that i can have those extras in life as opposed to mortgaging myself to death like many people do. Theres a big difference between working hard and working smart....some of the hardest working people i know have never figured this out and are always broke because of it.
