So much for progressive or even falt tax ideas.
A single guy making 70-90k a year around here(philly) is HARDLY middle class.

That would be more around 30-50k.

70-90k per around here is a house in the burbs and a new car in your drive....ie, UPPER middle class.

For myself(and i AM middle class), i have definitely had less taxes taken out of my earnings since the cuts.

Plain and simple.
