And it's likely goin to be people making $200,000+ paying for the bulk of it. Boo hoo
Obviously you aren't making that kind of money, and don't ever plan to. I have never been for higher taxes on those making more money than myself. When I was in high school and making $2.75 / hour I wasn't for taxing "the rich" because I have always worked towards improving myself, my situation and my income. I'm not at $200k yet, and maybe never will, but I'm getting closer every year.
If some people spent time worrying about how to do better themselves and less time bitching and moaning about people who have more than they do, they would get a lot further.

what is so wrong with people who make more money paying more in taxes? The get more of everything else....like tax breaks in other ways. Someone make 40k a year pays SS tax on every dollar. But someone making 200k only pays on the first 90k. How does that make sense?
If you can pinpoint where I said only $200,000 + earners will pay the entire thing, I will gladly cease from arguing.
