Maybe I missed something, but I’m not sure why you linked to a blog that talked about how taxes were going to go up for the middle class. Is this guy’s opinion on whether $250,000 is rich or middle-class definitive?

Aw, fuck…are we still talking about $250,000? It’s an arbitrary number that most (not all) Americans would associate with (still achievable) wealth. Had the speech been given in 1972, the number would have been $60,000…possibly even less than that.
