Why? You're not adjusting for cost of living.

A family making $300k in Manhattan should not be taxed a lot, unless you think a family making ~$115k in Montgomery, Alabama should also be taxed a lot.

Policy is best written by the informed rather than the emotional.

No, you should be taxed a lot. [edit: you just said "those people should be taxed a lot" with no reason and then people get sad when the same is said to them]

I agree. I never said they shouldn't.
