when's the last time they cut middle class tax rates by 70%?

"The rich" the top 5% pay over half the total income tax bill.

the 'rich' get most of the income. that's why they pay most of the
taxes. AND their income has gone up 300% in the last decade

the middle class who actually DOES pay most of the taxes?

no tax cut. no pay raise in 10 years. yet they vote to cut the taxes
of the rich

Were they paying 150% of the taxes before? (do the math to see the
absurdity of your statement).
I agree they may have had their taxes cut, we all did, but alleging
70% is ridiculous.

when reagan took office capital gains tax was 40%. today it's 15%.
sorry...that's only 56%

gee. how do they make it on that?

when's the last time your taxes were cut 55%?
