[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My husband is a scientist in cancer research. He has an MD, a PhD and various other degrees. Lived very frugally and worked long hours all these years. Now he is nearing 50 and has just broken through the $100K ceiling. Previous posters who sneer at the "lazy opportunistic poor" simply disgust me.[/quote] Thanks for writing that. I am willing to grant that 200K does not make you rich in DC, but to moan about it when you know that lots of people get by on half that or less is absolutely tactless. And I think it's worth noting that to reach the point where the tax increase would be a whopping $1 per day, you'd need a taxable income of over 290K, which probably means a gross of over 350 K.[/quote]
