As a joke, this is funny. But as a matter of fact, not so true. I think the government steals from upper middle class and gives it to everybody else <g>. Recently I read somewhere that a family with income over $105,000 per year is considered wealthy. I find it very nice that someone considers me wealthy, even though I don't feel it at all <g>.
