ACTUALLY YOU SAID THIS BUBBA
"total horseshit. No one ever paid 70% of his income in taxes. In those days there were hundreds of exemptions and deductions. The rich paid a lower % of their income than they do today."

Obama has increased government spending less than any president in at least a generation. Page 22 US Message Board - Political Discussion Forum
YOUR WELCOME FOR MY TAKING THE TIME TO PROVE YOUR POSIT, WAS BULLSHIT BUBBA
I may not have been totally clear. My comment was aimed at federal income taxes. If you want to talk about total of all taxes, we can do that. Bubba
Good YOU agree, top of the 'job creators' EFFECTIVE FEDERAL tax rates topped 60%-70% Most of the 1950's - 1970's...
horseshit. the actual rate paid during those years was more like 15-20%.
while you are looking that up, look up how much GE paid in federal taxes in 2013--------you know, obama's buddy Imelt who moved thousands of american jobs to china and mexico.
ONCE AGAIN BUBBA
OK, I have looked at this chart several times. What do you think the words "average tax rate" mean?
Do you think it means average actually paid or average per the tax code for that segment of taxpayers?
Do you even understand my question?
"Do you think it means average actually paid"
YES, THAT'S CALLED EFFECTIVE TAX RATES. IF IT WERE MARGINAL RATES IT WOULD LOOK LIKE THIS
AGAIN, EFFECTIVE TAX RATES (ACTUALLY PAID ACCORDING TO CBO)
