A co-worker claimed Obama considers 50K a year being wealthy? Did this come from FOX or some right wing tab?

IDK but 50k a year is NOT wealthy. Maybe if you're single or married to someone who makes just as much with only one or no kids then sure, you're probably upper or mid middle class or just well off but for someone who has 3 to 4 kids, HECK no, that is not wealthy.

Hmm. I'm not sure, but I was reading this book for Sociology class which stated the average American makes around 30,000 dollars a year.

In NJ?NY/CT,(and other wealthy or more populace states) 50K isn't rich. but compared to 30K, I guess it is?

The thought of having a black man (no matter if he's intellegent ) as President has made some of the right wing lose thier minds.

In some places, that is relatively wealthy. And I'm having a hard time understanding why this would bother you???

please ask in the politics section
