re: #192 drcordell

You understand exactly what I meant. Which is most relevant to the U.S. economy today, the tax rate in 1899, or the tax rate in 1979? You’re completely deflecting away from the topic at hand here. Tax rates from 1913 until the early 80’s were at 70%+ for the highest bracket. And we did just fine. Explain why that wouldn’t be the case today.

If you’re looking for a return to the economy of the late 70’s then congratulations, you got it.
