high-income

Needles to say, no other high-income country behaves like this with deadly weapons.

To take housing as an example, low-income Americans live in worse neighborhoods than their middle or high-income counterparts.

And it's why they basically caved on the Bush tax cuts, ultimately agreeing to significant tax hikes on high-income Americans.

That means dividends paid by a C corporation to a high-income shareholder faced an effective tax rate of 96 percent!
