In his rush to judgement, blatant lies and spurious claims were made by
CliffFletcher. I'd like to see actual proof that people at some point in time enjoyed paying taxes, especially more taxes. I also like how he implies that the parents and grandparents of wealthy people earned the same income as their descendants.
Might as well just post a chart of interest rates and claim "And yet our highest interest rate is far lower than it was 30 years ago. Maybe someone needs to look at why people today are far more resistant to paying 18% interest on their mortgage than their parents were."
