The Big Republican Lie on Tax Cuts

Cenk Uygur: The Big Republican Lie on Tax Cuts

"When you look to see what that right level is in our history, what you find is very interesting. In our glory years between 1945-1965 (these are the years that the Republicans dream of going back to), the top marginal tax rate fluctuated between 77% and 94%. I was stunned when I first learned that. People's heads would explode if you suggested those levels now. Yet, it worked for us for decades as we built the great American middle class and our manufacturing base.

The second interesting fact is what happens when we have historically low taxes. From 1925 to1931, the highest marginal tax rate was as low as it has almost ever been - between 24-25%. And between 2003-2010, the highest marginal tax rate was also at one of its lowest points - 35%. So, what happened when we had these really low tax rates? The Great Depression and the Great Recession."


Keep on lying dumbasses.

Keep on lying dumbasses.

Democrats need to run on a 90% income tax platform or maybe a 100% tax like Obama's father's wanted.

Will they grow a sac and run on their Inner Marxist or will they lie like Andy Cuomo in NY and run on spending cuts and no new taxes?

You made a claim with zero correlating data. Tell us of your economic prowess. The business you run. The multi millions you made etc.

I know you're stupid but why so dishonest?

If a 90% tax rate leads to prosperity why aren't Democrats running on that?

Its more than the tax rates..

Its the overall deregulation of finance and industry that encourages rampant speculation

Very strange to say the least. Maybe we should outlaw owning stocks?

Nice way to ignore the fact that increased taxation of those who would invest does not help an economy... and quite obvious that you are ignorant enough to not understand the difference between coincidence and causation.. tax increases were not the cause of any boom in 93 and government is not the sole reason for private market up or down turns
