WR, a large portion of the upper 20% of income earners live in high cost areas like SFO, NYC, and LA. $100K/year doesn't get you much in those places. They say that $250K/year is the new $100K. Even there, though, people always look at those making more. Kind of funny how liberals making almost $200K/year in SFO say that the "rich" should pay their fair share, since $200K is much more than what most of the country earns, as you pointed out. I say let's not worry about the rich. There will always be someone richer than you, and there will always be someone poorer than you. Tenchusatsu
