Is this hobby becoming too expensive?

<p>Our wages are a darn sight less than the Median. Aside from taxes, necessary bills and trains/entertainment we are happy to have a savings account.</p><p>The Government needs to count the people by how much they have saved up instead of looking at those IRS tax forms. They wont, because it is easier to lobby Congress to stack the spending higher and leave the worrisome problem known as the budget for the next Congress.</p><p>My area says that they enjoy a median income of 35,000 dollars per household. I like them to go to the local grocery store and see the forest of WIC assistance cards being swiped. They need to go down to the Walmart super center where all the REAL money is being spent usually in another county.</p><p>There is a small number of people who enjoy trains compared to the overall population. Judging from the large number of lake fishing and hunting shops in the area there are other hobbies competing for the dollar.</p>
