there's lumpenproletariat, there's poor, there's middle class, there's rich, and there's super-rich. If $50,000 (per year no less! How much is that in 20 years? Is a million dollars not a meaningful distinction, because that is the difference between $15 and hour and $40 an hour over 20 years.) If that is not a meaningful then write me a small check. $5 or $50,000. It's not a meaningful distinction so make it $50,000.

You simply cannot be richer than 80 or 90% of your neighbors and claim that you are not rich, just because you still have to goto your high paying job.

I am fine if rich people feel sympathy with lower income working class people and want to help them. What seems to be a stumbling block is when you seem to think a "middle class" tax cut for yourself is some kind of help for us.

And 5 is not 3,000 any more than $5 is $50,000.
