In addition, the top 50% have a share of 87% of the national AGI, while the bottom 50% have a share of 13% of the national AGI. Pretty wide gap there.
$150,000 may not be all that wealthy in the real world, but what does that then imply for $30,000 or $40,000? REALLY not all that wealthy?

More class warfare, it's all about the have's and have nots with you... You also ignore the fact that that top percent already pays almost all of the federal income tax....
