[QUOTE="Jones, post: 883902, member: 4805"] You're the one who brought up Kennedy cutting taxes on the rich. What I'm telling you is that the top rate was 91% and he cut it to 70%. In addition someone who was at that top rate would have paid 70% on capital gains rather than the 15% at which it is capped today. If you want to argue that effective tax rates were lower in 1964 than they are today, perhaps you could provide a chart to demonstrate that. [/QUOTE]
