What I don't understand is why it's being painted as "continuing middle class tax cuts" vs "continuing tax cuts for everybody" when, in fact, the tax cuts on income below $250,000 a year IS FOR EVERYBODY. A sanitation worker's first $15,000 in income is taxed at exactly the same rate as a neurosurgeon's. So continuing the lower tax rates on income below $250,000 is something everyone gets, not just the "middle class." It's more accurate to say it's a decision whether to continue to give the wealthy EXTRA tax cuts.
