Decomp,

You misunderstood me, I'm NOT angry with folks making money, especially if it comes from hard work & education.

I am FURIOUS that "capital gains" are at the rate of a piddley 15% AND many of the republican hopefuls want to drop that rate to ZERO!

That makes me soooooooooooooo angry! clo

Per wikipedia,

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Household_income_in_the_United_States

The HOUSEHOLD income OCU just railed against and that gets clo "soo angry!" is...

$87,500 to $89,999.

And that's generally the income of TWO working adults, not one.

How angry are you about such people now, clo? How does this compare with your SOLE income? (You are still working, right?)
