The 250K living in USA is rich, really? The middle and upper middle class are American’s bloodstream of working people, small business owner; include the famous “Joe the plumber”, mom and pop store, dry-clean laundry around your corner, your favorite diner and burger stand, as well as salon and barber you always go to. The new tax wouldn’t hurt chain restaurant giant, fast food Chain Corporation, right? While large superstore could get by with “less profit”, you can see in your own town “small business and shops closed” and many empty stores hanging “for rent signs”.

Many of my friends are (were) many small business owners (salon, gift store selling lottery and gum) who already closed their business even before tax season, they simply couldn’t make the rent. I didn’t dare to ask them how they got by on filing their taxes.

Tax on upper middle class is nice if tax those “single yuppie wall street brokers”, but when it hits small business owner, it simply move "upper middle class" to "middle class" and since they closed their business therefore their employee shifted from "middle class" and "lower middle" class to a new class “an unemployed class”.

Many cheer for tax those people who make over 250K and now many people belief (fear) that next target group tax would be those who make 100K, so Obama could make his book balance with budget spending. Quote from one news source “Bush's tax policies were a godsend to the Paris Hilton class, but they sent the country on the road to bankruptcy and helped ruin the economy”. I wonder if Bush or Obama’s tax policy will have any affected on Paris Hilton Class anyway. Maybe, she might buy less GUCCI bag and less PRADA shoes? They are not 250K income people anyhow, and far from upper middle class that people refer to as rich.

Barack Omaba’s tax cut for the class that considered “not rich” is good, but sincerely 250K income living elsewhere outside America could be considered “rich”, but NOT when you live in “US of A” especially if you live in big cities, or if you live in the skyrocketing tax NY and NJ.
