    As usual, comments and judgements are rushed to with not enough information, this is directed primarily to blue_sky.

    If you look at Obamas “blueprint” for his administrations policies well, two points are glaring (for those who choose to exercise intellectual integrity) more government control over the citizenry and more taxes.

    Anyone see the bill he is currently sponsoring with Hagel? http://obama.senate.gov/press/071211-obama_hagel_can/. How is that justifiable given the circumstances in our own country?

    [quote=asianautica][quote=kev374]It is an OUTRAGE to consider someone earning $125k/yr as “wealthy” when that income can’t even afford a decent single family home over here in Orange County. Have you lost your mind??

    [/quote]
    I think you might have misunderstood my point kev374. That’s exactly my point, if one person making $125k/year is not considered “wealthy” (which I completely agree with), then $250k for 2 people is not “wealthy” either. Especially if we strive for equal pay among the sexes and a family having double income. [/quote]

    125k is about 3 times the median. That is wealthy by any standards.

    Well, then you support the idea of lowering the bar for increasing taxes for single filer to $125k from $200k that Obama set. All I can say is, good luck to expensive cities like SF, NYC, etc. in trying to find workers to relocate there if Obama hold the same view of $125k/yr/person as wealthy and increase taxes for them.

    It is a well known comment that 2 can live together cheaper than 2 people living separately. So $250k for married is probably the same wealth as $150k alone.
