    Entirely anecdotal of course, but in my experience people of all political stripes who make in the ballpark of $50k are fine with higher taxes on the 1%. It tends to be people I know who are in that comfortable upper-middle class bracket (let’s say earning over $100k - earning enough to feel superior to working class folks) who get worked up over higher taxes rates on those who still make a lot more than they do.
