[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well OP I like to buy nice things with the money I work hard for.  Same goes for DH.

[b]I prefer $150 jeans.  So what, its my money.
[/b]
We all make choices and just because I choose to enjoy my money and spend it on things that we can afford but are expensive, does not meanI should be taxed the hell out my earnings.

We are right under $250k and sure we are comfortable but not rich.[/quote]

Listen, you are rich.  No one here gives a shit that you are stupid enough to buy $150 jeans.  Your desire for status items should not be part of a public policy discussion.  It's amazing to me that Republicans can denigrate the poor for having "fancy cell phones" and "big screen tvs" but that I should give a shit about rich people's feelings and whether they can afford expensive junk that's made in the same factory in China as everything else.  Sorry, it works both ways.  If I should look down on poor people for buying fancy things, I can look down at you for being a greedy consumerist snob.[/quote]
