[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Doesn’t go nearly far enough. The income threshold is far too low, and the increase is pathetically inadequate.

It should kick in at $150k for singles, and $225k for couples filing jointly. And it should be a minimum of $6k/yr to start, and scale up rapidly from there. [/quote]

This. OP is just like everyone else who pretends to be a liberal until it affects them.[/quote]

If your HHI is over $225,000, you ARE “the rich”.

Start paying your fair share, greedy bastards. [/quote]

Lol. $225k is a[b] pittance compared to what the truly wealthy make[/b]. That’s like when my 8 year old is in awe of her teenaged cousin’s paycheck from her summer job. [/quote]

So? What’s your point? Tax them,  too.

Tax the snot out of everyone making more than mid-$200’s. Then you get all of them. The wealthy AND the mere rich making a pittance of what the wealthy make. [/quote]

These lines are all completely arbitrary. No one is more virtuous than anyone else. Define pittance.[/quote]

Yep. Why mid $200s? Why not $175k?[/quote]
