200K is a big chunk of change, but not outlandish. Just look at the average salary of a congressman and/or senator! And it's not a question of "if" a household can afford it.
What's the motivation for small business owners if they discover that once they break the 200K mark, they'll be taxed through the nose? Shouldn't we encourage job-creation, as opposed to punishing successful people?
