good grief, you missed the point completely and then threw in a plug for trickle-down economics, another totally failed idea that helped bring our country to its knees by allowing most of the money to go to the top 1% where they are hoarding it and by transferring the tax load to the dwindling middle class through the political power their riches have bought.

you seem unable to even SEE outside the box, let alone think outside of it.

The higher tax rates are, the LESS money those who HAVE it put it to work in the economy.

Amazing how the economy survived during the 50s, 60s and 70s.
