2019-01-15 14:02:37 UTC  

That's your only purpose of coming here?

2019-01-15 14:19:52 UTC  

@Leo (BillNyeLand) no it hasn’t

2019-01-15 14:19:59 UTC  

A top tax rate of 90% has never existed

2019-01-15 14:20:51 UTC  

yeah

2019-01-15 14:21:00 UTC  

i'm not even american

2019-01-15 14:21:09 UTC  

Inflation adjusted the top rate was 70%

2019-01-15 14:21:16 UTC  

And that rate in effective terms was 45%

2019-01-15 14:21:25 UTC  

So the highest income tax for the top rate ever has been 45%

2019-01-15 14:24:11 UTC  

So yeah a tax increase to 70% or even 55% would cause huge problems

In 1944-45, “the most progressive tax years in U.S. history,” the 94% rate applied to any income above $200,000 ($2.4 million in 2009 dollars, given inflation). In World War Two, tax law revisions increased the numbers of “those paying some income taxes” from 7% of the U.S. population (1940) to 64% by 1944.

@Leo (BillNyeLand) the effective tax rate ever however was 45%

2019-01-15 16:51:02 UTC  

It doesn’t matter what tax rate it was in that time. What matters how much tax was payed

2019-01-15 16:51:14 UTC  

With an effective tax rate of 45% that seems not even close to 90%

2019-01-15 16:51:34 UTC  

We can’t look at it in face value, this happens in countries like Denmark etc

2019-01-15 16:51:41 UTC  

The effective tax rate is much lower,

2019-01-15 16:51:49 UTC  

There are so many ways to avoid taxes and it was the case back then in USA

2019-01-15 17:37:47 UTC  

Then shouldn’t the effective tax rate for a 70% marginal rate should be much lower than the effective tax rate for a 90% marginal rate

2019-01-15 17:43:58 UTC  

@Leo (BillNyeLand) Yeah I'm just saying

2019-01-15 18:15:52 UTC  

@BaneOfThots scroll up

2019-01-15 18:25:01 UTC  

@Jack H. Obviously you’ve never gotten disrespect from a Trump supporter if you’re a Trump supporter lol

2019-01-15 18:25:02 UTC  

???

2019-01-15 18:25:31 UTC  

I’m an SJW and my SJW friends don’t treat me like shit I guess that means all SJWs are good people!!!!!

2019-01-15 18:26:04 UTC  

What do you want me to say? Literally nothing that I say will get you to change your mind that Trump is basically a God.

2019-01-15 18:26:41 UTC

As I said in the other chat. You will dismiss anything that disagrees with your worldview as fake news.
