Anytime folks want to talk about a flat tax rate for everyone at 25%, I'll be happy with that. People that make more and still end up paying more taxes on an absolute basis. When you're taxed at 40-50% just because you have the capability to earn in that bracket, seems to punish those with those capacities. And like some people say, 250k-$300k households are very feasible with a dual income parents working in a "middle class" job. Like I said before, kiss your cap gain tax breaks away.
