From what I know, I think Obama is saying $200k for an individual, and $250k for a family. That seems to punish married couples, although I suppose they could file separately. He should just make it $200k for an individual, or $400k for a family. The difference could be made up on the high-end, taxing Warren et al. with a marginal rate like he suggests.
