  1. $100K for a family of 4+ is not high income. In a HCOL area, it’s borderline middle class. This graphic and analysis is terrible.

  2. This is only going to accelerate.

    The public discourse is dominated by corporate media, algorithm directed misinformation and bad faith politicians. Prepare for the debate to be exclusively about culture war and nothing about the elite.

  3. 100k in NYC area, -$35k for taxes. -40,000 for rent, $25k left for everything else. For a family of four, $2k a month isn’t much to spend after utilities, transportation, credit card bill, etc.

    Anybody really think $1,500 a month for discretionary, not including restaurants, clothing, etc, is high income?
