    Prices are only going to keep going up, so it's pointless for me to complain... but I'll keep b*tching about it anyways just to express my distaste.

    How convoluted would that be ? If you were selling it to them they would already own it .

    whoa... that is really high. maybe it balances out with your health care being pre-paid. so with your tax rate, health care and gas prices, do you think you are better off financially living in Canada vs the US? In general. not asking for anything personal. Living in Texas is probably as inexpensive as you can get in the US i would think. there may be cheaper, but you can have a pretty decent living dallas/fort worth.

    Our health care is pre-paid by our taxes which are ridiculous. I lose a little less than half my pay cheque to taxes and deductions. On a $2675 cheque I take home just over $1700. Lovely.
