I don't understand what the srawman you think I was making is supposed to be. The quote is what I was replying to. He was referring on taxation focusing on the rich (not the well off). My original reply was commenting on that.

Is the strawman supposed to be that 1% is too high a bar of entry to be considered rich? Or something else?

Financial security is a much higher bar than 1%.
