    As a programmer and my wife is a doctor, I’m in the upper brackets. But I don’t care. Also happy to see the millionaires losing even more money!

    In my eyes, $3000 goes a long way for someone struggling!

      That’s because anyone with even a shred of empathy would rather live in a healthy society for relatively cheap.

      If I didn’t have to pay taxes, I could buy a house and stop paying rent. I’m above median.

      Neither plan is good.

      I am in upper brackets, too - I’m happy to pay more if someone who is struggling doesn’t have to.

      Yeah, I would pay less under Trump and so would everyone in my area. The brackets that would pay less under Kamala can’t afford to live here. Still a very blue area.

      Same. Oh no I’ll have to cook at home a few more times per year. How will I survive.
