I remember, I think it was on Scalzi's post about how people who complain about taxes generally don't understand tax law, someone talking about a mother who, if she took a $75,000 job, and put her child into a $24,000/yr daycare program, after taxes, would ONLY net an additional $10,000 in extra income after expenses, on top of her husband's income, and who the hell would work for $10k/yr.

All I could think was how many people would kill to have a job that left them with ten grand a year after expenses - and that this is yet another person who is totally unqualified to talk about what's "fair" in this world.
