[quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous] Meh. I used to live in Sweden as a kid; income tax rate went as high as 90% (they let you keep 10% of what you earned, subject to other taxes). They have scaled it back to ~64% in Sweden. That doesn't exactly look like the capitalism our founders imagined, does it? I seem to remember something about an excessive tea-tax. . . Besides, even North Korea & Cuba have allowed "expiraments" with capitalism, but don't fundamentally believe in private property ownership.[/quote] The US used to have a top marginal tax rate of 90% and that was during a time that many conservatives consider the golden age of American capitalism.[/quote] We can agree that the U.S. has made many mistakes in the past; that does not mean we should repeat them. And I noticed you left a few socialist countries off your list: namely Venezuela, Cuba, not to mention the defunct Union of Soviet SOCIALIST Republics. Socialism always fails.[/quote]
