Somewho who makes 250k a year should pay more than 6 times what someone who makes 40k a year makes.


you know, i don't think i understand this number very much.
yes, $250,000 is a very small percentage of people. but it's not really rich, rich. not the kind of money people are thinking for that - i don't understand why the argument wasn't just... double that. make it 500k and add a literal millionaire tax for the next level.


Because this is the number that people agree is NOT rich. And establishment Democrats continue to act like they represent the interests of people making 40k, just because they represent the interests of middle class people making 250k against the rich making 500k+.
