[quote=AN][quote=briansd1]It’s income over $250,000, not all of it. People just don’t seem to understand the concept of marginal rates.[/quote]
Of course it’s income over $250k and it only hit 3% of the people. After that’s in the bag, what would stop them from saying, lets lower that to $150k when they need more money. That only affect a few more % of people. Those people are not middle class anyways. Then what would stop them from lowering it to $100k? That’s alost 2X the median income. It only affect another small % of people.[/quote]
Some people will say that. That would be the people that say that the middle class doesn’t pay it’s fair share, and that those with higher incomes pay too much. Wait, they already are saying that. So which is better? Those that already want to tax those with lower incomes at a higher rate, or those that want to tax only those with higher incomes at a higher rate?
