I'm thinking the couple with $250k adjusted gross income and the usual deductions, paying $50,000 annually in federal income taxes, recently turned a lot more pessimistic when the president lumped them in with billionaires and told them they are being greedy and selfish and unfair and his top priority is to hammer more money out of them.
If they are making $250k, then they are doing better than about, what 95% of their fellow citizens. They are doing great. I have a feeling they'll survive going back to Clinton era tax levels. We are heading for Brazil-like status under the current tax system,and that does not create a society any of us grew up in or came to love.
Considering the fact that they still have jobs, I think they can "get over it."
So you have a triple whammy that does not spell relief for our economy.
You have the TP and generally repugs coming out with horrible ideas that negatively impact the economy. plus the economies of Europe are very shaky now.
And you are surprised about the market dropping... Repugs should be elated... they have brought the economy to a standstill, that is what they wanted.... Mission Accomplished!

Take a look around the world..Greece, Italy, Portugal and Ireland just to name a few are crashing as well.
This is a global depression with countries on the verge of sovereign default. This is not isolated to the US and not due to 6 months of Republican majority in the House.
But you go ahead and think that anyway.
