Often they reply that it is obvious... and that it is anyone making between 40 to 80k... that certainly is off from your definition. That is combined family income too.

You have other points id like to address but i need to go to work.
This is one of my concerns with the liberals. I think they are setting us up for a massive tax hike to anyone making more than $100k, which would actually punish most of the middle class folks they are targeting for votes. I see a huge bait and switch coming from Trudeau, don't trust him or that party at all.

The Conservative government has already cut my taxes a number of times AND helped the middle class tremendously with TFSA's, universal child care allowance (bonus for the fairness of this policy), income splitting, tax deductions for youth sports, etc. I'll go with the party who has the proven track record of making my life better.
