What's rich?
$250k and down for tax cuts.
Does anyone find this laughable? $4800 a WEEK? That's a lot more than just about everyone makes in Cleveland a month. What percentage of folks in the US make over 200K? By any reasonable measure that's a very very good wage.
Party of the working man my patooie. They've got to go $250k to cover their core support.

$250k and down, would be everyone who makes less than $250k----that would be nearly everyone who lives in Cleveland. And here in the Swamp and in Bugtussel...........
You see, people who make over $250k need another dollar like they need a hole-in-the-head.

$250k and DOWN is a lot of people........most of us, I would venture to guess.

Maybe the cuts should go to those who make $1b and up so that all five of them can have more money that they don't need?

I would venture a guess that a majority of the people in the $150K to $250K income bracket are leaning toward the GOP, so maybe, under your reasoning, the cut-off should be $150K.

But it isn't D, so a logical conclusion would be....

That $250,000 is far higher than most working people make? No.
That $250,000 and DOWN would include many execs and business owners? No.
That "and DOWN" means that people BELOW $250k also means you and I? No.
Not missing anything.
Is there something obvious that you are missing?

That's cutting it close. That's a very suburban middle class wage around NYC.
