Assuming a few potential data entry errors, I got an average of 57.69%. I think Nonniey forgot to carry a 1 somewhere. I think Forehead forgot to include every year the US was in existence (mea culpa I did forget to add the income tax that existed during the Civil War). Sure you can divide by 106 to get in the 57.69 range but the US is 243 years old not 106 . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knew?🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you want to count the 137 or so years there wasn't a federal income tax permanently legalized to cheapen your argument, so be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's right it couldn't have posted the highest marginal income tax rates of earlier years because there weren't any. (With the exception of the Civil War which I admit I forgot to add in my calculations). And I said the average marginal tax rate "through US History" was 25+ %.

So you willingly used 137 years of zeroes to make some asinine argument about an average over a 243 year period? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beto signaling his lane in the Democratic primary. He'll run as a "uniter" just like he did in Texas. He'll be the young guy without much baggage in the same lane as Joe Biden.

Honestly, it’s probably the strongest, most factually transparent argument he’s been able to offer in his time here. We’ve clearly had a positive effect on him.
