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.
