[QUOTE="thedownhillEXPRESS, post: 1115100, member: 41741"] We also had tax rates on the wealthy that were much higher than we have today.(above 90 percent for many years) This allowed for investment in our infrastructure, education, and law enforcement and kept the pressure off the middle and lower class.It also kept their political clout under control. Now we have the opposite in that the rich live in their private enclaves with their own security(and tiny tax rates) and the rest of us are left to fend for ourselves while Rome crumbles down around us.
