krazykitkatNote to Kat: stay away from any news site Murdoch related. The breath-taking ignorance and bigotry just makes you mad.
Honestly, if I see one more idiot type, "if you're earning less than $100k, than you're a drain on society and not trying hard enough,", I'm going to explode and make a mess.
I can't find recent income distribution tables, but considering the mean income was ~$55k last time I heard, and the median is below that, just what %age of the population is earning over $100k??? Not very large.
And considering the poor spelling and punctuation of the majority of posts, and their complete inability to understand how even income tax works, I'd like to know how they're earning that much.
