    Wonder if voters/families living in high cost cities like DC/LA/SF/NY & earning just over $200K/$250K are OK w/ tax hike.

        @DavidMDrucker do you understand marginal tax rates? This tweet makes it seem like you don't.

        @Letsgomets15 Yes I do, but it's still a relevant question because tax hikes question is often emotional as much as emperical.

        @DavidMDrucker agree, but emotional responses often are driven by a misunderstanding of marginal tax rates. Press shld try to correct this

        @Letsgomets15 No separating emotion from tax issue, on either side.

        @DavidMDrucker yes, both sides benefit from these emotions. More frustrating tho when ppl who would be affected don't understand the issue

        @DavidMDrucker In fact, taxes will be lower for them compared with Clinton era (or Jan. 1 baseline!).

        @byelin Most don't judge tax rates on historic highs/lows,but today v yesterday.However,I bet answer to my original question is "no."

        @bobmeyer667 Still, seems to me no one wants their taxes to go up at all, hence approval of tax hikes on top earners.

        @DavidMDrucker Even as a symbolic move, it seems reckless and non-productive. Class warfare populist theory meets harsh fiscal reality.

        @DavidMDrucker neighbor earning $250k/yr in high cost LA exurb is furious re tax hike. Also furious that I may get healthcare.

        @DavidMDrucker If its just over, the Dem proposal won't mean much. Higher taxes is on dollars earned over $250K. But you know that.
