I was reading an article in the Columbus Dispatch today about the "middle-income" buyer earning $20,000 to $50,000. 

It’s this kind of sloppy, fuzzy kind of thinking or lack of it that we find every day in the newspapers that are supposed to inform people. 

No way is $20,000 a year "middle-income" and no way is an income of $50,000 comparable to $20,000 except to say, it’s two and a half times as much.
