$75k in some areas of the country is living high, in other areas, barely squeaking by! And in places where it'd be living high, the jobs don't pay that. In places where it's barely squeaking by, they do.
Yup. A better solution would be to base it on the average of a given area. Below or at average, you get a refund, above, no refund (if they still want to punish "rich" people).
Because wifey is a stay at home mommy, we'll get our "refund" based on household income. If I were single, I would get dick. We'll probably blow much of it on a new TV, a purchase we were planning on making some time this Spring anyway. Our current TV is dying.
