Doesn't it feel weird that NO1 even mentions it in the LAMEstreamCORPORATEmedia or on

FIXEDnewsCORP'sFAUXnews?

Top Income Tax Rates during Eisenhower's 8 YEARS ranged from 92% to 89%;

we should AT LEAST return to HALF those rates for those making more than $25MILLION/yr. after all legitimate deductions!

I used 9/30 of the 1st year of ea. Presidency because those are the dates given by the link,

& it is at least a base for that current Presidential term.

Compare President Obama to Reagan or GWB.

If what U & FIXEDnewsCORP's CONS say is true: "However the reason it has increased by so much is mostly the bad economy. It has relatively little to do with who's in office. During the downswing of a recession, most of the additional spending and most of the loss of revenue is due to mandated stuff like unemployment and unavoidable stuff like people and companies that don't make money and so pay much less in the form of taxes," try explaining RAYgun's terms to President Carter or President Obama's.
