I find it funny how bad faith commenters immediately reach for the "COMMUNISM" bugle the microsecond any tax increase for the ultra-wealthy is proposed.
Taxes on the highest income bracket during Dwight D. Eisenhower's presidency where 90%.
90%.
Ya know, during the 1950s. The so called "Golden Years" of the USA. Fiercely anti-communist, Cold War going on.
And here we were taxing the richest at 90%.
That's how I know your comment is in bad faith.
- bradfox2 6mo agoIncome vs wealth tax. These aren't comparable.
- waterTanuki 6mo agoThe amount paid by the proposed wealth tax is a paltry sum compared to the income tax. They absolutely are comparable.
