    Most of America doesn't have a savings account or the ability to pay a 400 dollar emergency bill.

    I guess if you want to be in Medina?

    JE argues for single payer. And sounds poor.
    Yes. I don't have a mythical burger stand.

    You're describing comfortable, but not rich. Particularly not in Seattle.

    Puts you in the top 3% of all income earners and definitely meets the threshold most Rats are talking about when they're are talking about the "rich" who aren't paying their fair share.

    Rich is wealth that can generate passive income. A million dollars is a lot of money, but it cannot reliably produce a lot of passive income. You’ll need to keep working that $250k job and put as much as you can into savings and investments. If you do that you may very well be “rich”, or close to it, at the end of 10-15 years. A salary isn’t rich. What you have in the bank is the real measure of rich.

    We’ve lowered taxes on all of these things for decades now. Sometimes taxes have to go up; they can’t just always go down.

    I know that you were trying to give the impression that a lot more folks than the rich need to pay more just like your party thinks

    Millionaire is defined by your assets. Your bank account, retirement funds under management, home equity etc. are included in that calculation. I would agree your annual income alone does not define whether one is rich or not. Time and location are large factors weighing in here.
