Bullshit Ten. 250K and up are the only people who can come up with more money at this point. And keep in mind if they lose their jobs they dont have to pay. I proposed a long time ago that there should be a temp surtax on the highest earners that sunsetted upon recovery. Right now we have so called rich folks going backwards to the middle class and middle class folks heading for lower status. Folks who stay rich need to pay more to share whats left of our wealth. We do need to refigure tax code going forward for when normalcy returns.

Obama is just hiking taxes on the "rich" to where they were at the end of the Clinton admin. Taxes on the "rich" have been becoming less progressive since Ronald Reagan. We've got a long way to go..
