Loading ...No I do NOT think we should pay more taxes, most of us can’t even afford to pay taxes. What we need is an expanding US economy.

re citizens get free medical, free college, unlimited sick days, questionable currency values etc. Our citizens get none of that. If we were avoiding the exporting of our production jobs, we would be back to the 50s and 60s prosperity. I don’t know where you found 3% income taxes back then. I remember hearing about very high taxes that were very affordable with higher profits/wages etc.
| 1945–1963 | 3% | 91% |
| 1964 | 3% | 77% |
| 1965–1981 | 70% | 70% |
| 1982–1986 | 50% | 50% |
I also think all combat veterans should be totally tax exempt for life.
@Buygold you are 100% right about how you described these days. re your “endless wars, fat military industrial contracts, corrupt, mismanaged projects that line the pockets of Gov’t. cronies have broken us. 90% of the gov’t jobs need to be eradicated, ridiculous regulation eliminated, and the innovation of private individuals let loose. That’s the country we had in that era, that’s why things were affordable.”
They are all symptoms of our leaders that gave away the store and joined the global commune.
