He even quotes Sanders when he explained, clearly, “No. That’s not 90 percent of your income, you know? That’s the marginal.”
but then, a couple lines down, Jazz Shaw writes
He’s willing to have the government come and take ninety cents out of every dollar you earn if you commit the sin of being too successful in modern America.
Stopped reading right there since “Jazz” is either a moron or is purposely being dishonest. You only need to watch MSNBC to see this is true.
Why not both?
This is also evidenced by the fact the he refers to the “Democrat Party,” as only the most retarded wingnuts do:
A ninety percent tax rate. Think about that for a moment. Even the worst tax and spenders in the mainstream of the Democrat Party would never say that aloud, but Bernie Sanders at least can boast of the virtue of honesty. He’s willing to have the government come and take ninety cents out of every dollar you earn if you commit the sin of being too successful in modern America.
Of course some people have “said it out loud” (not that I personally would suggest a marginal rate that high today), in that it may come as a surprise to this chucklehead that a 90% or higher bracket existed in this country for many years (including when the U.S. was recovering from paying for a huge war effort), including as recently 1963:
