The problem is you’re judging this from a point of singularity and not over time. A person who makes $200,000 once isn’t rich. They make it for 30 years, yes, likely.

But none of that matters.
The math matters. There is no math that makes $200k a middle class income. Sorry.
I agree with you though... and this is an unpopular opinion (because everyone thinks they're "middle class")... the middle class gets ONE HELL OF A DEAL when it comes to taxes. They don't pay isht.
Nothing is going to change that. See the chart above.

By most standards north of $350,000 is rich. Upper middle class is $200-349,999.
It’s still middle class. I’m not rich. I drive a truck. My wife a Subaru. We ain’t rich. But we also just starting out.
