From today’s news, regarding how far down the income scale that tax increases are going to hit:

Sen. Byron Dorgan, D-N.D., who chairs the Senate Democratic Policy Committee, said he didn’t think there was “any magic” in $250,000. Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., noted “you could go lower … why not $200,000? With the debt and deficit we have, you can’t make promises to people.”

Se. Feinstein, who voted for Medicare expansion and ObamaCare, did not intend irony.
