I am not going to split hair. But let me make a prediction. If either HC or BS is elected, in 4 years (or 8 if they stay in the WH for another 4 years) your son will still pay higher income tax rate than very rich people. And there will be more poor every year. This is why these rich people paid about $30,000 a plate for a democratic fund raising dinner with BO a couple of weeks ago in Chicago.
