Holy shit! Obama's tax rate proposal is RADICAL!!
He must be a socialist, like Reagan! |
the interesting part of that graph is the period between the 30's to the 70's. you know. the time period we came out of the depression and became an economic super power. seems hurt the argument that deep tax cuts for the rich are good for the economy shit right-wingers keep spewing.
the only thing deep tax cuts for the rich seems to accomplish is to enlarge the wealth divide.
