Again, 2 nurses, with 10 years of tenure, would make that. Yes, it is well above average, but it is not crazy. It is not uber-wealthy and in need of changing the system, or requiring luxury taxes.
Dude, you said it was squarely middle class, which it is not.

And yes, there is a big difference between a family income of $200k and an individual income of $200k, so clarifying that makes more sense.

Why are you getting so defensive about "changing the system" and such? The point was just simply that it's a LOT of money, we don't need to pretend it's not. Who is outraged about it? Nobody, we're just correctly pointing out that it's a lot of money for the vast majority of the population.
