a $250,000 limit is nonsense.

Most families in this country are not even close to $250,000 in income.

Median household income in 2009 was $50,000. Only 20.1% of households made over $100,000. Only 3.8% made over $200,000.

Keeping tax cuts up to $250,000 simply provides much bigger benefits to those making over $100,000 than it does to those making under $50,000.

Let them all expire and replace them with something much fairer.

That's what Democrats should be proposing - IF they cared about the bottom 60%.

The silence of Democrats who care about the bottom 60% is deafening right now.

At least it speaks volumes to me.
