Al, > My point is that you can't do any of this if make 30K a year. You are describing people who have choices. I took issue with your statement below: > The mid wage earners get hit with payroll taxes and are less likely to do any tax management Who do you think are the "mid-wage earners"? Those making 30-50K a year? Many of them also have home mortgages, you know. Of course with the real estate boom, you've just locked out the next generation of wage earners making 30-50K a year. Most people have choices. Those that don't aren't taxed anyway except for alcohol and cigarettes. (Why should they be smoking and drinking in the first place?) > You make my point in your sentence. Let me ask again: Think increasing the top rate back to 39% is going to make Buffet pay his "fair share"? The answer will demonstrate the folly of skewing an already skewed tax code more.
