Let me try and put some perspective on this, and hope it drives home my point

I work with 3 people in my general area here at the office that are married with 3 kids. For them, their tax burden is 65,375. If they pay 33% in taxes, they would need to make $196,125 before they were not a burden on this country.

So we are no longer talking about the poor. Someone who makes $150,000 a year, drives a Lexus, goes on vacations, sends their kids to summer camps, and lives in a nice house will have to be subsidized by the rich. Somehow, it’s now the rich’s job to make sure that family is taken care of.

It’s crazy.
