As for the 250k, it really is hard to come up with a number. I guess they settled on a number that was about four times the median household income. It would probably be better if families in areas like mine or new york, etc could work off of some kind of sliding scale.

My point about "handle" was that its not just democrats bitching about it. Everyone does.
I did read your response. Did you not see my little rebuttals? You say AMT is necessary, I dont. We disagree and there is no way i am getting into why i think that its elimination could be covered much more effectively because i just cant type that much.

Everybody may bitch about the takeout but Dems are in effect voting for Brunetti and his takeout/tax plan.
