Right and?

The Top Tax Bracket right now is like... 35%.  So you know.  Your wrong.

If this is some arguement about the Reagan economy... it was actually one of the stronger economys of the last few decades with the only issue being the wasteful spending against communists.

 

Look at that big jump in real GDP between 1988-1990.

Higher then even anything Clinton go during the bubbles.
