The last time Democrats led a major, across-the-board federal income tax rate cut was with the Revenue Act of 1964, passed under President Lyndon B. Johnson. This legislation, originally proposed by President John F. Kennedy, was a significant, across-the-board reduction: It lowered the top marginal income tax rate from 91% to 70%.It reduced the bottom individual income tax rate from 20% to 14%.It also cut the top corporate tax rate from 52% to 48%.
Amazingly, they still can't figure out why they don't get my vote 50 years later!
You're an idiot.
Even the stuff you think the government should do must be paid for.
And you reward those who pass that on, rather than paying the cost in real time.
Better yet, you consider it a virtue.
It might be defensible if these goniffs outperformed, but they have bequeathed disasters. Clearly evident in the data.....which you don't bother to actually look at.
