How's Michigan's economy and social programs doing with such taxes?
In the crapper? Thought so.
Gender is a phenotype, not a genotype.
If the genes don't get activated, then the phenotype is not seen.
People who make 16.5k in the US before taxes do not pay federal taxes, and in fact get a welfare check from the government in the form of the "Unearned Income Tax Credit".
In Mobile, Alabama, there are 15 insurance plans for a 35 year old that cost under $125/month, far short of $2200 a year.

I believe what you describe is a Notre Dame home game.
If you've ever been in an SEC stadium with 90,000 other people trying to use their cell phones, you'll understand that live streaming Just Ain't Happenin'â. Text messages are about all you can reliably send/receive during a game.

3) If you've ever seen a couple try to live on Social Security, you'd be mad about #1 and #2.
4) $100/mo from 18-65 in the S&P 500 is about million dollars, which would give easily 80,000 a year withdrawal without hurting the principle, or 6600/month to live on. The highest social security comes out to about 20,000 a year, or 1600/month. Social Security hurts those it is supposed to help.
