I don't consider myself rich, I am doing rather well, but not rich at all. However, according to the Democrats I am one of the eeeevvil Rich as I make more than 50k a year and work for a living...
My wife and I are in the same boat, though I am retired she still works and together our income puts us in the bracket that democrats are fond of calling "rich"
Our kids are grown so no deductions or credits for that. Our house is paid for so no interest deductions.
The bottom third in income pay no fed taxes at all, yet they complain about how GWB is not giving them any of the tax breaks.
It's the wage earners and other productive members of society who pay and pay and pay.
John Kerry and his ilk want their hands even deeper in my pockets. It makes me sick to hear him talk. When he comes on the news anymore I change the channel immediately.
