In 1950 individual taxes were very low, so low that, after deductions, most Americans paid no income tax to the federal government.
Now, after 62 years of 'compromise' we see the government at all levels taking the majority of our income.
How did we get into this condition?
Because of asswipe RINOs like Simpson compromising whenever the Democrats came up with a new excuse to take our money from us!
When a theif comes up to you and demands your money in your wallet, it is NOT compromise to give him only half.
It is a compromise when you dont shoot the son of a bitch.

In 1950, there were not that many Americans that made over $10,000 a year. And the taxes rates were far higher than they are today.
Jim, do some research before you post nonsense.

Alan Simpson Slams Fellow Republicans For Unwillingness To Compromise
Former Sen. Alan Simpson (R-Wyo.) lashed out at members of his party on Sunday, slamming them for their unwillingness to compromise on proposed tax increases.
In his characteristically colorful style, Simpson told CNN's Fareed Zakaria that Republicans' rigid opposition to new tax revenues has hampered productivity and diminished the chances of reaching an agreement with Democrats on debt reduction.
"You cant cut spending your way out of this hole," Simpson, who was appointed as co-chair of President Obama's Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform in 2010, said. "You cant grow your way out of this hole, and you cant tax your way out of this hole. So put that in your pipe and smoke it, we tell these people. This is madness."

If there were more Republicans like this man, I would still be a Republican. At least he's willing to tell it like it is.
Taxation is completely different now than it was in 1950.
Back then, taxes were used almost exclusively to run government.
Now, taxation is largely used for wealth re-distribution.
You all can obsess over Grover all you want, IT's the Amercian people telling this Goverment, No damn new taxes until you show us some REAL Government cuts...and not just from our Military as the Progressives love to hit FIRST.

No, it is the 1% telling the government no new taxes on them

Everything you say is qualified in some way. The sign of a bullshitter.

OR, I have done the research and the average family, if I recall correctly, in 1950 made around $3000 annually with a per person deductable of $400. Since the taxable income threshold was around $1500 that meant that most did not pay tax, nor should they.
Corporate taxes were much higher as a percentage of the federal budgets receipts and that has shrunk by about 50% as a percentage of the total fed receipts.
Though total tax percentages topped out around 80%, there were so many deductables that if you paid more than 30% you needed to fire your accountant.

Do you take issue with the post, or are you just going to openly weep at the truth of it?
Who pay's more money in taxes?
A person who earns 50,000 a year at 25%
OR
A person who earns 50,000,000,000 at 15%
Who pays more taxes?
The second he slams Bowles Simpson plan onto the table and orders the GOP to vote for or against is the moment the election contest is over. If they vote for it, he wins. If they vote against or refuse to vote, he wins.

You didn't understand what I said? I said your post is full of shit.
I am so glad Obama does not get it.

Sooner or later, I am afraid, this is exactly what Obama is going to do.

WARNING!
We are now dealing with advanced intellect here. And......such an original premise too!
