The middle class needs to pay more taxes too. We have the lowest tax

diatribe now.
hardly.
the middle class hasn't had a pay increase in 10 years. the wealthiest
1% have seen their incomes triple in the same time.
taxes haven't gone down. nor has cost of living.
the middle class needs a tax reduction. the rich got theirs.
You are with JPS and bitching that the 9% of the population between
$100,000 and $250,000 a year are having a tough time? Well I suppose
the other 85% making it in less says tough ****.
The 3% over $250,000 did just get their taxes raised, a lot.
Sad when people think that less than $100k is near poverty. Maybe they
should associate with the real middle class. Those ringing up the
groceries
in the grocery store. Clerks in a local store. The clerk in the local
legal drug store. The machinist at the local automotive machine shop, the
local mechanic.
If you say "middle class" is over $100,000 that eliminates virtually
everyone outside those 25 big cities JP talks about and most of the
people in those cities where the true poverty lies.
I can see how the rest of the country can call rich democrats
"elitist".
You've gone off the deep end with this. The elitist in this country are
millionaire, mostly, who don't give a hoot about their employees. It's got
little to do with the money. It's more about attitude.
